So for the last couple of days, I've been seeing a popup from norton saying that blocked an intrusion by the same ip address. I am pretty sure I haven't been doing anything suspect at the time. I've looked around on the norton forums here and I couldn't find anything. From what I could find elsewhere I'm being told it might be the ads in skype, though I never click on them.
I've copied the log from one of the intrusions below:

The only sites I've been on during these attacks were skyrim wiki pages, and I'm fairly sure that those are safe. I have also been in 1v1 skype calls each time, where there are skype ads. Is this truly something originating from the ads in skype? Should I be worried at all about these, or should I feel fine since the attempts have been blocked? Is there anything I can do about this?
