I'm beginning see a lot, too.  All different IPs though.  I'm also seeing a
lot of scans in my snort log that follow this pattern: FIN scan to port
111 --> RPC Info. Query --> RPC portmap-request status --> Shellcode x86
NOPS.  It all started about a week ago.

I couldn't find any of those addresses, but I have similar scans in my logs.

63.91.6.36
64.32.209.213
64.21.114.2
66.22.62.2
216.98.160.251

Last 24 hours....all the above IP's are looking for Sun RPC.

In the last five days, the port scans to my entire class C have dramatically
increased, from one per two days on average, to four yesterday and six
today.

Is there a new exploit around, or is there some sort of new worm out there?

I might just be paranoid, but here are the addreses that have been looking
for port 111 in the last 26 hours:

24.26.121.156
24.168.66.119
64.31.226.156
142.169.227.102
193.226.15.15
211.218.144.11
