Your dialup connection looks fine, and if you are not offering any services to 
the outside world, all incoming packets from the internet should be dropped 
by the firewall.

If you can successfully browse sites other than Google, then the problem must 
lie elsewhere.

Firewall messages such as above are very common, and are usually scans etc 
directed at windows machines and servers. A traceroute of the address, eg. 
SRC =62.62.174.143 will probably be unreachable, or some very dubious place.
