Here is the line from acid :
Source
destination
      DOS MSDTC attempt         207.35.159.36:80
10.0.0.249:3372
TCP


How is this possible? 10.0.0.249 is a proxy machine taht
doesn't have public

Is your snort box inside your FW?  If so, I think what you are seeing here
is a false alarm.  The source port on the packet is 80 (HTTP) and you
mentioned that the 10.0.0.249 box is a proxy server, so if you are
snorting
after NATing occurs this would explain things.

ip. How somebody can connect to non-routable ip from the
outside world?
Or should I interpret this line as something else?
