Mark,

Time to set up a firewall - double-quick!

I wouldn't be surprised if they're pinging your machine to see if it's active; then they'll try various weaknesses to see if they can hijack your PC.

Alternatively, if you've got broadband consider getting a router - I've run tests against mine and it's invisible to random searches.

my ip tracker gives the latitude of 35.7850 and the longitude of -5.8130

(probably the isp's address)

Here's the location mapquest spat out:

Cheers

G

go get em

Seems to be a large delay on the last hop with an adsl2 connection

Send an amazingly large no of packets to them (quite a few bits of software out there to do it) and bring their system down.

Unfortunately my Moroccan ain't up to much but I know a woman answered:
