Hey guys I'm new here and I'd like to think of myself as a knowledgable computer user, although just minutes ago a prompt appeared on my screen and I was clicking on my screen and accidentally hit "ok". The prompt somewhat flashed before my eyes but it appeared to me that it said, something about my DHCP and an IP 10.0.1.3 had connected to my computer. So I kind of freaked out since no one should be connecting to my computer. I am running my internet over an oldschool airport (WEP Password protected) and thought oh $#@! someones trying to steal my information (passwords,credit card info, etc), so I unplugged my airport and turned off my wireless connection on my macbook pro then went into my console and checked out my system logs to try and find what happened. Well, this is what I found:

the 00:26:08:6f:ce:89 is a MAC address if I'm not mistaken. I hope it is nothing, but if someone could tell me what happened that would be great. Thanks
