Hey there. I'm a little suspicious of some of the activity that I've been seeing on my traffic logs for my firewall and I wanted to get some opinions on it. The slew of blocked incoming UDP connections is what caugt my attention. Here's a screenshot:

It doesn't look like an attack, since it's from multiple IPs and some of the same IPs are alternately blocked and allowed.
It looks like its coming from a wireless program. Are you on wireless?
Check out this link. It might provide some helpful information. It's a service and could be disabled (prefrably set to manual in case something bad happens)

Nope, I'm not on a wireless connection. And yeah I didn't think it was an attack either but why would Sygate be automatically blocking it? It's not taking any advanced rules into consideration when it blocks them... should I configure the firewall to let that stuff through? Is there any way to tell what it is, exactly? I'll check out that info on ndisuio, thank you.
