Re: I keep getting port scanned!
Is it just me, or is the OP's software providing a useless report? "UDP Port scan" doesn't mean anything without the details, and that just contributes to clutter or "OMG!" responses.
However, because I'm apparently smarter than Sygate, I can tell from here that this is specifically benign behavior: it's UDP-based traceroutes originating from a Routescience route optimizer.
Ignore it.

Look at the facts. The report has scared the hell out of the OP. It has made him glad he is protected by that software.
Useless for security, sure. But a damn good marketing effort to keep the customers spending money on a product that they don't need.
