address sends invalid ICMP error to a broadcast . . . ?

["John G. Norman" <jnorma4@attglobal.net>]

Hi.

I'm getting the following error on my linux box (debian, potato) connected 
to MediaOne via a cable modem--

	24.147.237.100 sent an invalid ICMP error to a broadcast.

Where are these coming from? They happen with two addresses about every 
five minutes. Are these other people on the net with funny configs? Or up 
to no good?

Thanks for any information.

	John N.
