Port 135/Epmap connections

[Adnank5]

Dear All,

Two of the pc's in my network is making inbound epmap connections to
domain controller around 30 connections and sometimes 40 connections.
Pc's are updated and fully patched, since there is no additional
software on these 2 pcs that differentiates them from other pcs on the
network hence i am worried it will slowdown the network, i have
scanned the pcs and no virus/worm i could find in the pc, and i can't
even close port 135 as it is being used for offering remote assistance
so this port has to be open all the time,
