Someone trying to hack my computer? what does this mean (pic)
Just took a screenshot of this, it has happened maybe 5 times now in the past month. Should I be concerned and what else should I do to protect myself?

Re: Someone trying to hack my computer? what does this mean (pic)
The only way for someone to access your computer by this means is if you actually have the Netbus trojan on your computer. I suggest first doing a virus/trojan scan to find out.
What I personally think is happening here is that people out there are just randomly scanning blocks of IP addresses on the Netbus port to find someone with it installed. I highly doubt anyone is directly targeting your computer, but is rather just actively scanning a large range. I honestly wouldn't worry about it.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the Zodat worm just trying to see if it can hit the IP of your machine. You can pretty much be port scanned for all open tcp/ip ports on your scan from any computer. If your XP machine is up to date in patches, then you should be good.

This is a typical IP scanning. Ignore. [/ QUOTE ]
