My firewall is dropping whacky packets looking like:
ip_conntrack_tcp: INVALID: Out of window data; SEQ is over the upper bound (over the window of the receiver)
ip_conntrack_tcp: INVALID: invalid TCP flag combination
ip_conntrack_tcp: INVALID: bad TCP checksum
Should I worry about this? Seems to me dropping them is a pretty safe
thing to do in any case... Maybe the latest virus?
