well if you closed the ithers then do it the same way.  you'll want to
close ports 137-139 though.

ipfw add deny tcp from any to <insert your address ranges> 137-139 

That is a quick simple way to do it.

You should also man ipfw for all the information on ipfw though.

Are there windows machines connecting to that box?  If so it is most
likely that,  otherwise it may be someone looking for windows boxes.
