    3128 is Squid (http://squid.nlanr.net/), and 8080 is a popular alternate
    port for HTTP and/or web proxies, so somebody's apparently looking for
    such.
    
    There was a problem awhile back with RedHat shipping a cache-manager CGI
    tool enabled by default.
    
    Also see http://www.sans.org/newlook/resources/ringzero.htm for info about
    a trojan that scans those ports.
