If you mean the alert that comes from IS2002 firewall
(the earth pic in right corner of desktop), it's not
dangerous. I got the same message once in a while.
Suppose it's not in your PC, someone's just knocking on
your ports to see if you have it there. Remember to
update your virus definitions via liveupdate to be sure
trojans won't get to your PC.
