I`m having a TCP traffic between my pc (windows XP) and a server (w2K3)

Most TCP and UDP port numbers aren't strictly assigned to particular
protocols - just because traffic happens to use a port number assigned to a
protocol, that doesn't necessarily mean the traffic is traffic for that
protocol.
If there's TCP traffic between ports 1061 and 445, and it's traffic between
an SMB client (such as your PC might be) and an SMB server (such as the
W2K3 machine might be), it might be SMB traffic that happens to come from
port 1061 rather than port 1063 or 1060 or 666 or 17432 or - it doesn't
necessarily mean that it's "kiosk protocol" traffic, it could be
SMB-over-TCP traffic, the port number for which is 445 (rather than
SMB-over-"NetBIOS-over-TCP", where the traffic is mainly on port 139,
except for some NetBIOS-over-UDP traffic on ports 137 and 138.
