I'm willing to bet that you're using 4Webspace.
When I was with them, I got the same crap. Emailed them about it and 
they admitted that they were using Windoze boxes, but that I should 
configure my box to ignore those packets. I suppose they didn't know 
how to stop their boxes from spilling packets all over the network.

Ports 137 and 138 aren't in use by anything on your RaQ (one of the 
reasons PortSentry can bind to them) - quit worrying about this. Just 
take those port numbers out of the TCP and UDP lines in your 
portsentry.conf file.
