My machine has been up for 27 days and it has progressively been getting
slower and slower.  The only thing I can attest to this is the growing
number of unclosed tcp connections.  When I type netstat -an I see about
300 lines like this:

tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.4058     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.2893     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.2021     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.3015     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.4907     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.2139     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.2780     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.1706     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.1132     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT
tcp       60      0  209.218.208.2.3166     159.138.7.1.6667       CLOSE_WAIT

I was wondering if there was any way to get rid of these without going
through and finding the program that made the connection since I have
around 200 people connecting and running programs.

My system is running FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE. Perhaps there is some problem in
the kernel which would cause it to not close some of the connections
correctly? If any one can help I would greatly appreciate it.
