    Unhappy Scanned ?

    I'd like to learn something

    I've just got the following from Sygate F/W
    Somebody is scanning your computer.
    Your computer's TCP ports:
    80, 6129, 3410, and 5000 have been scanned from 82.230.175.143..
    So, the question is :

    Is there a certain 'profile' that this particular scan describes ?

    That is, is it looking for something / anything in particular ?

    or do all scans look like this ?

    OS = Win XP SP2 + all updates
    AV = AVG fully up to date
    FW = Sygate

    TIA

    [edit]
    my attempt at a google search
    so now I'm in my SIXTIES FFS
    WTAF, how did that happen, so no more alterations to the sig, it will remain as is now

    Try this Google search. When I did it I did find this interesting site. I'd hazard to guess that it's very possible it's a worm scanning you. As long as Sygate is telling you that it's happening then it's a good thing.
