it isnt always like someone is trying to access ur pc . All comps on network broadcasts netbios name request in background so u get so many conn attempts in firewall but if few pc's are infected with worms then also u will get same problem . Anyways just disable netbios completely and you are safe even with firewall not present . Go to grc.com and download WINDOWS WORMS DOORS CLEANER , a small prog that disable dcom/netbios/messenger and most services used by worms .
