Also, there are virus' out there that look for vulnerable computers... and your firewall just blocked it (if it is)... so don't worry about it. Chances are it's an automated thing and not some person out there who's out to get you.
Thanks Stuart, it got me worried coz this did not happen before and I thought someone was out to hack me. If my firewall tells me the IP could I trace it somehow?
