They are an interesting hole in your firewall to:
"ec2-174-129-35-126.compute-1.amazonaws.com". I rather strongly suspect
it does not belong and should be ripped out by its throat. Unless that is
a rent-a-computer of yours at Amazon I'd read that with my heart in my
throat over being hacked.

Just where did you get this automated firewall tool of yours?
