Computer Attack

799 Views 2 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  bill gisse
I was alerted by Norton Internet Security today that an attack was blocked on my computer right when I turned it on. This is particularly suspicious to me because I only had this computer for a few weeks. These are the details it provided me...

Time: 3:43 PM
Date: 8-22-2005
Protocol: UDP (Inbound)
Remote Address: 192.168.2.16 : 1042
Local Address: 127.0.0.1 : 1042
Location: Default

A remote computer (192.168.2.16) attempted to connect to your computer on a port commonly used by a remote access Trojan horse (Default Block Bla Trojan horse). The attempt was blocked.
If anyone could trace the IP included or otherwise shed light on this, I'd be tremendously grateful.

192.168.2.16 is a private address inside your network. It will be on your side of the router.
I get those notices occassionaly, the first couple bothered me, now I just ignore them.
