I believe I'm being hacked
Dear Friends Whom I've Only Cultivated For Free Technical Support: I seem to have a problem and request advice.
I've been getting some odd laptop grinding noises, performance hits and complaints from McAfee that I'm not protected ("click "Fix") so I checked the Internet Inbound Events log and found a bunch of these:
A computer at 79.67.95-79.rev.gaoland.net has attempted an unsolicited connection to UDP port 28432 on your computer.
Another one from dru3.neoplus.adsl.tpnet.pl (same port)
etc. (ETA: OMG I've found HUNDREDS of them)
I have the option to ban the IP... should I?
More technical info on request - I haven't a clue what's going on.
TIA
NEW INFO: Something appears to be trying to open my Wireless Network Adapater (which I have switched off because I don't use it at home)
