  I always use
 > netstat -atupn
That shows all open tcp and udp ports. Invoke this before you start 
Firefox. The list should be empty or only contain sockets on the 
loopback network interface (127.0.0.*, ::1). To disable unnecessary 
network daemons use:
 > systemctl disable avahi-daemon/other-daemon
 > systemctl stop avahi-daemon

   For init opening RPC sockets you may need:
 > systemctl disable rpcbind.socket
 > systemctl stop rpcbind.socket

  You may also uninstall unnecessary software:
 > apt-get remove kdeconnect

View all processes with
 > ps ax
That may also be of help:
 > pstree -p

To identify the executable of a process
 > ls -l /proc/1234/exe

And to identify the package an executable belongs to:
 > dpkg -S /bin/bash

If rkhunter should once not yield the desired results then use 
debcheckroot: https://www.elstel.org/debcheckroot/

Also helpful:
 > systemctl -t service -a

If you have a rootkit that does f.i. infect system libraries like glibc 
you will not see anything in the netstat nor in the ps ax output because 
these utilities can be replaced by utilities that do not return things 
belonging to the rootkit. To be sure that your system is clean you will 
need to use debcheckroot as rkhunter only knows a certain set of well 
known rootkits. However in this case rkhunter may have found something 
though.
