MSBlast or what?

[Malcolm]

I have scanned for the msblast worm with symantec and found nothing.

Did a live update with norton then scanned drive and found nothing.

My system seems to be clean yet i'm losing my connection every minute and
then reconnecting then disconnecting over and over. I'm getting "attacks" on
my firewall that says "MSRPC TCP port probe" and it's not from 1 person it's
from a different person every 2 - 5 minutes. and it's been doing that for 24
hours.

Could this be a virus within the servers effecting my connection instead of
my pc itself?

Any information would be appreciated.

Yes. Your clean, you are being probed for the vulnerability.

The same thing is happening to my Broadband connection, I keep getting
disconnected and have to wait a while before I can get back on again! It
has occured 6 times in the last 45 mins.

I have found this problem on 2 of my friends' computers. One has a
dial-up, and gets bumped off almost as soon as she logs on. I don't
know if they're getting the port probe.

This really seems to be related to msblast, but how can we find out?
Other people must be experiencing this. Who do I turn to?
