mysterious complaints from my ISP - could it be Beagle?

For several months now, a box I have up on the net at the office has been 
generating the occasional complaint from my ISP. They generally a few lines 
from a report they've received which are largely uninformative except for the 
fact that they contain the word SPAM in them. I've run port scans, 
chrootkits, monitored my logs, and several other things, and have never found 
anything. Every time I call them, they tell me it's probably someone 
masquerating as me. Just now, I've gotten a fresh complaint which contains 
the following lines reported to my ISP reported to them by whoever their 
upstream provider is (I think it may be Global Crossing)

The third through fifth entries are the first time Beagle has ever appeared in 
these reports. Does anyone have an insight to what this could be about? By 
the way, the first line IP address is my box - the other IP's are unknown to 
me - maybe they don't even apply. It's funny because when I call tech support 
and try to ask them about it, they're always apologetic, and don't really 
know what these reports mean either...
