I saw an earlier posting about this, and I had the same thing happen to me:

Somebody is scanning your computer.
Your computer's UDP ports:
60190, 55260, 58859, 55385 and 65072 have been scanned from 192.168.1.2.

198.168.1.2 is my personal computer on the same router as the machine where I got this message.  Should I be concerned that there is a bot or something else nasty happening on that machine?

I have SAV running on that machine, and no threats have been detected.

I'm getting similar alerts

I am getting the same alerts.  Does anyone have an answer as to why one internal computer would be scanning another in the same network?
