I am getting alot of "Default Block Netbus Trojan Horse" alarms popping up with Norton Internet Security Pro lately. Should I be concerned about this? I'm guessing someone's trying to get in or hopefully hasn't already gotten in!!

Are there any steps I should take? I've been doing regular virus scans of my computer lately because of this just to be sure!

It's just really starting to irritate me. I know I can chose to ignore getting the message but I really prefer to be alerted to these sorts of menices!!

Thanks.....

I dont use alot of Norton's products but Netbus uses port 12345 by default but can be changed to any port #.To put this in a 3rd grade understandable level its either blocking a Port Scan of Netbus becuase Netbus comes with a scanner already in it or it could be blocking inbound or outbound access of Netbus.If you scan your computer for viruses mostly any virus scanner would pick up Netbus but I recommend AntiTrojan if it picks up nothing then someone is probably scanning your system with the Netbus server and just have norton ignore that alert.
