    I just recieved this pop up message from my computer telling me a computer tried to send a data packet routed through my computer to another computer through mine. What exactly does this mean? should I be concerned? It only happened once. I did a virus scan and Ad-aware and Spybot, and nothing came up, but I'm just really unsure as to what happened. According to the little help web page that came up, the data packet didn't originate on my computer, and it was just going through it. I'm really confused, though.
