I forgot to copy the list on my reply, but then I made a typo on it, so
here we go again, corrected....

I interpreted the transactions listed as:
Webserver:80 -> Browser:3372    (Reply)

So I assume somewhere in the packets stream is a:
Browser:3372 -> Webserver:80    (original request)

If this assumption is correct, it could be a false positive.

I see false positives a lot when I'm reading about IDS and virus
signatures and the actual content delivered contains the signature, and
a port of 80.  

Notice in the alert the internal address listed as the destination
appears to be receiving a reply from a server from which a request was
made?  The source, not the destination, is on port 80.

Snort LAN sensor
Here is the line from acid :
Source
destination
      DOS MSDTC attempt         207.35.159.36:80        10.0.0.249:3372
TCP


How is this possible? 10.0.0.249 is a proxy machine taht doesn't have
public
ip. How somebody can connect to non-routable ip from the outside world?
Or should I interpret this line as something else?
