It started about 2 weeks ago and it's at almost 4000 connections blocked.
Is there something i can do about this or should i just ignore it?
I have remote desktop turned off in windows.

All I can find are threads of people who get false positives from their local IP, but that's different. It looks like I am getting warnings of actual attacks, but my question is what i should do about it.
