Not yet (and fully patched so I hope I won't).  UDP port 2002 is blocked
at my firewall.  I've now modified my f/w configuration so attempts on
that port are logged as well.

I'm seeing a number of probes, but all from the same remote host. 
Interestingly, said hosts probes a number of other ports in addition to
2002.

Hmm.  I've just had a look.  The probes I'm seeing are to:

    TCP 22
    TCP 23
    TCP 25
    TCP 443
    TCP 1080
    TCP 1433
    TCP 1521
    TCP 2000
    TCP 2002
    TCP 3128
    TCP 3306
    TCP 8080
    TCP 32771
    TCP 32772

but none to:

    UDP 2002

and it clearly is clearly working through IP addresses in sequence
because I have 4 IP addresses on that subnet and it tried them all.  Is
this slapper or something else?

In case anyone's interested the source IP address is 212.44.241.20
