Do you have a firewall installed other then windows firewall? What version of norton did you have? And did you check the registry for left-over tidbits from norton?
I don't think this is a firewall issue per se, it seems to be an external attack trying to penetrate a specific vulnerability.

Sounds like you do not have a router. You should get one...
Correct, I don't have a router, nor will I be getting one.

I was hoping someone could point me at what the vulnerability is that someone's trying to exploit, and while the router suggestion is a good one, I doubt I'm going to be spending the money on a router just for the annoyance of these continual blocked attacks. I'd rather try to implement a software fix or patch whatever the problem is. If anyone has anything to offer on that front, I'd be most appreciative!
