Every 10 minutes I get this:

Did not receive identification string from 205.11.185.13

where 205.11.185.13 is the local machine (public) IP address.

It started all of a sudden 3 days ago. I'm all patched up and I know that if I get the same message from outside IP addresses, it's more of an attack.

Why would this box attack itself?
