Poking at what port 1439 is legitimately used for:

Ring a bell?

From http://www.tcpdump.org/tcpdump_man.html

The general format of a tcp protocol line is:
src > dst: flags data-seqno ack window urgent options

The
first time tcpdump sees a tcp `conversation', it prints
the sequence number from the packet. On subsequent pack_
ets of the conversation, the difference between the cur_
rent packet's sequence number and this initial sequence
number is printed. This means that sequence numbers after
the first can be interpreted as relative byte positions in
the conversation's data stream (with the first data byte
each direction being `1'). `-S' will override this fea_
ture, causing the original sequence numbers to be output.
so what is being seen above is one conversation looks like.

I now know enough to understand half of the TCP dump.

// Your computer says "I've seen 147 bytes" (number is since tcpdump first started monitoring conversation).
// This packet contains no data, btw.

The dataflow is towards your computer in this small sample. I cannot tell you who opened the connection.
