Rob,
So I guess from what you're saying is that these were
just the initial SYN packets, coming from remote
source IPs...right? None of these were signatures
going from inside your organization, headed
out...right?
Also, the IDS product picked these up based on the
port assignment, right? If that's the case, while it
*could be* SubSeven, it could also be that Linux worm
(Ramen) that I mentioned...it uses the same port...
Just as a side thought...did you happen to nmap scan
any of the source IPs? Your first post said that each
scan consisted of three packets...based on the timing
between them, that could be a Windows box.
