I did not put the real IP address in the post, just changed 
the numbers to protect myself. 
The ISP real IP address does do a reverse dns ok.

This machine is a virgin install of FBSD never been connected to 
the internet without firewall. There's no way that the Ripper 
Trojan could have infested my box. The 520's I am receiving can 
Only be from my ISP's router. 

What ipfw rules do I need to respond to make that router 
happy and shut up?

Well I'd be a little suspicious due to the lack of a reverse dns entry for
that ip.  According to arin, that ip belongs to Alexia Internet.  This
your isp?  Is that ip your gsteway for traffic back out?
