I just upgraded my computer (finally) to windows xp. No every 30 seconds I get alerts from my firewall that people are trying to access my computer. What the heck is going on? I do have a virus scanner and spybot destroyer so my harddrive is supposedly clean. I’ve never had this problem before, and I had the same firewall as before also.

Has anyone else had this problem?
