Firewall logging port 6346

My firewall has logged 131.114.2.90 trying to connect to my port 6346, this has been happening for quite some time now, about once a minute. I know that this is the standard port for Gnutella (it also says gnutella-svc), but I would like to know if this is just a server trying to connect to the wrong machine (I'm using a modem to connect to the internet, dynamic IP, maybe someone was communicating with 131.114.2.90 before I connected using this IP?), or could this be some malware? I traced the 131.114.2.90 machine back to ser-fib.unipi.it (131.114.191.50), but traceroute couldn't get any further. Could this mean that the network is slow / broken down there in Italy (I suppose it's Italy). Best regards, Jos Kirps ----------------------------------------------------- EducDesign S.A.
