    A couple of messages that i read when searching through google
    appear to indicate that it might rely on your firewall, bad
    packets that are not in state anymore and such and then gets
    blocked by your firewall.

    Could you provide some more details of events happening around
    the same time of the messages you posted here? Perhaps something
    else precedes the message which gives more information on what
    might have happened...

    Url with some information:

    (and related messages)

    Cheers,
