Andrew,

That started a few weeks ago, got lots of coverage on the security lists.  
Some bot wandering around trying for some default accounts to try to get in, 
just a brute force thing, but not much of a force.  Just so long as you don't 
have stupid username/password setups like guest/guest, root/root or 
admin/admin (I can't remember all of them right now, but they were pretty 
stupid), you'll be fine.
