I was checking my router logs and came across this:
[DoS Attack: ACK Scan] from source: 68.142.93.133, port 80, Wednesday, November 26,2008 22:29:55
[DoS Attack: ACK Scan] from source: 68.142.93.254, port 80, Wednesday, November 26,2008 20:31:29

Ran it through a Whois database:

I did a quick web search and they are affiliated with the searchme.com website. A few months ago, there were a lot of complaints about their spiders causing heavy traffic on websites.
Thing is, this is on my home wireless network. Does this mean anything or just a false alarm?

I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.

If it's only three entries don't worry about it. Bots scan the Internet all the time. You can, however, check to see if your router is properly stealthed with Shields Up!.

Must be just a fluke.
