Title: Strange Log Entry

Perhaps you have users that have modems that they use to connect to the Internet?

Subject: [FW1] Strange Log Entry

I'm looking through my FW1 log because our T1 is up and running, but we can't seem to get to the Internet, except email. I'm seeing entries in the log such as:

        Source          Destination
        t130.uia.net    msnbc.com

The source is not from our network and the destination is not to our network, so why the heck would that source be coming to us to get to msnbc?  BTW, uia.net is our ISP.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Michelle
