I could be wrong, but if they were attempting to connect to an IRC server, then it probably points to using your machine to DDoS or DoS someone else. There was a news article about this only very recently, in which it described something similar to this. Unfortunately, I've been unable to find that article again. That would be my guess, but feel free to correct me, it's been a long week. :) Regards, John. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is provided by the SecurityFocus ARIS analyzer service.
