    I am running XP Home.
    Just got online, reading forums in here and all of a sudden my firewall is going nuts. The log is gave me is as follows
    .Somebody is scanning your computer.
    Your computer's TCP ports:
    3128, 3382, 8000, and 1026 have been scanned from 66.232.147.168..

    Does this mean they got thru my firewall?
    I tried to see what I could find out about the 66.232.147.168 but it is in another language.

    Do I need to do any extra scanning than normal?

    Thanks

    Probably just an agressive scan or looking for vulnerabilities...the IP is from Korea. If they got through, you'd know it. Watch and see if the IP shows up again over the next several days, which is common for things like that.

    Here's a port list, see if anything raises any concern with you:

    Thanks Star. It's the first time I ever had anything like that happen since I installed Sygate. Scared me.
    I'll keep an eye on it.
    I checked the ports on the list you gave me, but didn't really understand what they meant.
