If anyone know how to understand this Please help me.

This is an entry in my firewall security log.
I don't know if my computer was hacked.

** Unauthorized HTTP Access ** <IP/TCP> xx.xx.xx.xx:63765 ->> xx.xxx.xx.xx:88

I have omitted the real numbers for the IPs addresses, the port numbers are there.

Can anyone tell me if my computer was hacked or if somebody accessed a forbidden site using my machine.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Robertt

If your firewall blocked it, then you are protected and probably no harm done.

I'm not ignorant, I just need more learning!

Thanks Abnormal and Tammy1949
for your repplies.

I went to the web sites suggested, tested my port and everything is ok.

I already checked my machine for viruses and it is clean. No files or missing information either!

Fortunately my fire wall was able to protect my pc from this hacker!

Thanks again for your help!

Robert
