Someone is scanning my computer?

[a1nerd]

I just got this message from my firewall.

Somebody is scanning your computer.
Your computer's TCP ports:
1080, 80, 8080, and 8000 have been scanned from 221.234.179.215..

Yep, thats why firewalls are important to have now.

Those look like attempts to see if you are running a website on your local comp. But as long as your firewall blocked it, I don't think you have much to worry about.

Common Port Scanner...all over the place..thats why we run Firewalls with Routers..
