Re: Intrusion attempt
These Smart ARP attacks are reported by the firewall protection
It is a type of attack where a hacker sends an Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) request with the same source and destination IP address to a computer. The target computer continually sends an ARP response (its MAC address) to itself, causing it to freeze or crash.
Hover the mouse cursor over the attack rows. You should see additional info then. Does any of the IP or MAC match hardware/units within your local network?

Re: Intrusion attempt
You can check the machine IP and MAC addresses by opening a commandline window (start - run, type cmd and press OK) and then typing the command ipconfig /all

Re: Intrusion attempt
Then the reports about Smart ARP are correct because they are coming from outside your network
They may be caused by a P2P application misconfiguration but this is something we can't help you with

Re: Intrusion attempt
Is this a malware or something? I'm not so familiar with this thing and is it safe? I mean will it causes any big trouble to my system? If it doesn't affect much on my pc then I'm okay with it though

Re: Intrusion attempt
It doesn't necesarily mean that you are infected, as mentioned before these "attacks" could be caused by a P2P application (eMule, BitTorrent, ...) sending packets with wrong headers due to a misconfigurationtrinityr wrote:Is this a malware or something?
Anyway, if you want to make sure, you can run a scan with your Panda Antivirus Pro 2015 or an additional scan with Panda Cloud Cleaner

Re: Intrusion attempt
You can run a scan with Panda Cloud Cleaner on that machine to make sure it isn't infected
