Odd activity

I've been getting a good amount of rather odd traffic for the past six hours
or so.  203.208.171.210 (registered to a company in Singapore) has been
lobbing TCP to apparently random ports and hosts on my network.  I can't
detect a pattern.  The rate is pretty low, too: one packet every couple of
minutes or so.  A sample log extract is appended.

Is this backscatter from someone else scanning using some of my IP addresses
for spoofing, or some sort of network mapping technique I haven't heard of
yet?

Also, someone at Earthlink (in the office, it looks like; 207.217.94.249),
swept UDP from port 33476 to 33523 to an IP on our network that is not
currently being used (and in fact has not been used in a very long time),
one packet per five seconds, ascending port numbers, no repetitions.  Is
this traceroute?
