In the past couple days, there has been an upsurge in blocked connection attempts--it is almost continuous. Here for instance, is the information indicated in the inspector window.
Direction: Incoming
Action: Denied
Type: User-defined setting
Protocol: UDP
IMCP info:
Remote Address: 192.168.1.2
Port: 137
Host: 192.168.1.2
Local Address: 192.168.1.3
Port: 49189
Host: 192.168.1.3
Remote address always ranges from 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.4. It seems to be scanning systematically going from port 49189 to 49190 to 49191 and so on.
I would appreciate any assistance deciphering these connection attempts.
Thanks in advance.
