My of my friends has NTL cable modem too, i checked his log and didn't find
anything like this.

I had a quick search on the net after NTL's service is back on. It seems to be
some kind of DoS attack on some other machines (which hopefully my machine has
NOT done). I doubt they are DHCP requests, as it does not explain the IP
address "10.144.103.254" - it is neither mine, or valid to ping. and it is
the same IP through out the log (thousands of entries).

:-S

have a nice weekend
