I am constantly being scanned by this I.P address: 201.86.23.173. I'm using Sygate personal firewall pro. and don't have much luck trying to backtrace it, very curious as to who this is? Security is still okay but the scans are relentless. (Not the most able of computer users but not daft either)

That IP belongs to
Latin American and Caribbean IP address Regional Registry
This is most likely normal the registry is partially responsible for you being able to use the internet. However, run virus scans just to be sure, it could also be a virus that is sending information to/from its creator.

May even be your own ISP ?
As long as your firewall is working, it should be fine, not much else you can do.
