Good luck w/ getting statically compiled tools on Windows!

I'd also consider openports.exe from DiamondCS.com.au.

Good one.  Add nmap.

On XP/2K3, netstat -ano

I guess from here on out, it depends on what you're looking for.  My book, Windows Forensics and Incident Recovery 
(http://www.windows-ir.com), lists a good number of tools you might consider using, particularly if you're interested 
in getting process and Registry info as well from Windows boxes.  In fact, the Forensic Server Project framework may be 
something useful for you.
