    You should get an IDS (Intrusion Detection System).This will let you know each time the attacker tries to connect to your box.Here's a list of IDS:

    OrgName: The Disney Channel
    OrgID: THEDIS-1

    NetRange: 199.181.129.0 - 199.181.135.255
    CIDR: 199.181.129.0/24, 199.181.130.0/23, 199.181.132.0/22


    Are you sure you don't have any software installed that would be going to the Disney Channel? Are you sure that your browser or windows multimedia player isn't downloading content?

    It would be helpful if you could provide more information in the log. Sanitize your IP out of it, but leave the port there, this would help me determine a little bit better. I am assuming the number mentioned after the IP is a port number, but there is no mention of whether or not that is a source port or a destination port (the information I just asked for would help answer that question).

    I suspect you are using a personal firewall and many personal firewalls can get confused about the 'state' of the connection and will start dropping legitimate sessions, or through the configuration (for example if you disabled windows media player from going to the internet) will drop the connection.

    An IDS log or a sniff of the session would be most helpful, but the rest of your logs would probably be sufficient. In the meantime, I would recommend checking your existing installed software and try to determine if there is any possible legitimate reason that your PC might be going to the disney channel...

    Happy hunting,

    I have used both cleaner and spybot to clean up my act but I believe there has to be something left on my computer that commuynicates since it manages to get through my router. thanks nebulus200 for reminding me
