I too had the same problem and found my hard disc space shrinking and
queries to the logs sluggish.

This link to the Smoothwall forums explains how to remove the log entries
and ignore any future hits:

The ICMP packets from Nachi/Welchia resembles the Cyberkit packets with 64
(?) hexadecimal 'aa' as the content.

If that is the case, I wouldnt be worried. The sources are mostly spoofed,
but mostly class B
