Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Hacking question

I am using WireShark 1.0.3 and I was running a scan on my network when I noticed some weird packages coming from the outside and they had a prefix of Brutus

1573    250.604174    10.0.0.5    129.101.198.59    TCP    brutus > http [ACK] Seq=515 Ack=5841 Win=17520 Len=0

has anyone seen something like this. Honestly my first thought was of the password sniffer Brutus.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Edsel
