I am getting about 10 notifications a day from my Norton IS firewall of
this attack, nearly all emanating from China.

Would somebody tell me if I should be worried by these attacks or can I
put them in the ignore category.

My pc is a home machine not running aervers of any kind but with
broadband connection. O/S win2k all service packed and fully updated.

I am sorry if this has been addressed previously, but I have done a
google group search and it found nothing related.

TIA

Bill
