This is someone port scanning you for IRC.  (Your network
is 208.42.101.192/something.)  It has nothing to do with
OpenSSL or OpenSSH (which is what I assume you really meant) or
4.5-RELEASE-pWhatever or FreeBSD.

The trojan was never something incorporated into the FreeBSD base
system, and the port would report a checksum mismatch.  You don't
really have anything to worry about unless you manually fetched and
installed the trojan'd ssh.
