While looking at QHST for something else, I noticed a lot of the following
messages:

TCP/IP connection to remote system 222.128.58.140 closed, reason code 2.
TCP/IP connection to remote system 222.128.58.140 closed, reason code 2.
TCP/IP connection to remote system 222.136.188.66 closed, reason code 2.

TCP/IP connection to remote system 41.178.102.242 closed, reason code 2.
TCP/IP connection to remote system 41.208.151.250 closed, reason code 2.

Reason codes and their meanings follow:
1 = TCP connection closed due to expiration of 10 minute FINWAIT2 timer.
2 = TCP connection closed due to R2 retry threshold being run.

Does this mean the hackers are after me?!?!?
