The only thing that I was running at the time when these problems happened was that I was downloading from RapidShare. But even right now, when I am not downloading anything, ZoneAlarm keeps giving up popups of having blocked an IP:

The firewall has blocked Internet access to your computer (NetBIOS Session) from 59.96.955.97 (TCP Port 4716) (TCP Flags: S).

I don't think I am trying to access anything from anywhere; at least, I have disabled all software updates, so that I can manually update whenever I like, and I pretty much know what is allowed and not allowed through ZoneAlarm, though I don't know what this NetBIOS and TCP Ports are.

As for torrent software, I do have Utorrent installed, but I haven't run it since some time, and in Windows Task Manager, in the open processes list, it doesnt show as a running process.

The IP addresses that are trying to connect are of a whole lot of places, but most of them are from around the Taiwan China HongKong region. Is there anything like a list of particular rogue IPs that you can just block?
