Hey, Gerard.

It looks like it began those scans on or about 2008-07-29 00:18:59 UTC,
with the vigorous scanning starting around 2008-07-29 01:03:01 UTC.  It
started with UDP 53 visits to 193/8, 194/8, and 141/8 it seems.

It's receiving a lot of ICMP port unreachable messages, not surprisingly.

Thanks,
Rob.
