Hello TB'ers,

Any ideals why my router firewall SMC7004FW would send an intrusion email alert on
a SYN flood with a source in  RU per the following URL:

http://www.ripe.net/perl/whois?form_type=simple&full_query_string=&searchtext=213.180.193.68&Advanced+search=Advanced+search
 

with my IP address as the source, then followed shortly thereafter with
another email alert where the source is my present IP address? Trojan,
WinXP security hole, etc.?

I sent this to 3 TB lists, not knowing which would be the most
appropriate. Here are the whole messages in both email:

,----- [ 1st message with my IP as destination ]
| Dear User
| Your router has detected and protected you against an attempt to gain
| access to your network.  This may have been an attempted hacker intrusion,
| or perhaps just your Internet Service Provider doing routine network
| maintenance.
| Most of these network probes are nothing to be worried about - these types
| of random probes should NOT be reported, but you may want to report repeated
| intrusions attempts.  Save this email for comparison with future alert
| messages.
| Your router Alert Information

Please note that my IP address can be verified per TBUDL
mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] sent earlier today.

Any ideals?  TIA!
