depends on what you doing, for example if you loading a website it will temporarily open multiple connections, it doesnt download via 1 connection but they are temporary only.

Things that normally leave open connections are irc, msn and telnet sessions, if you have downloads going they will be using connections, p2p will add numerous connections.

Trojans can leave open connections depending on what they are doing but they will normally have at least 1 active connection and 1 listening connection.

netstat -n -a should show everything and adding -b will show the process name.
