Re: Someone trying to hack me at my university?
Your firewall is retarded. A FIN scan isn't an "intrusion" attempt at all. Many software based firewalls for Windows PCs are highly overzealous and produce tons of false positives, causing more confusion than providing rational information. Even if your firewall correctly identified the traffic it was seeing, which I'm sure it did, the traffic is harmless. You can't break into someone's computer by sending 2 FIN packets to it. A FIN packet simply indicates the graceful closing of a connection.
