That IP is part of your local, private connection to the modem and/or
ISP.
As far as removal goes, try just finding the file that keeps trying to
connect and rename it or move it to another folder. Most of the ISP
parasites aren't smart enough to try to reinstall themselves. If they
do, try running HiJackThis and post the results here.
I take it the UDP is FROM your ISP's IP address TO those ports (local)
on YOUR machine? If so, your ISP is likely scanning you to see if
you're running a website, DNS server, etc. If that's not the case,
(or, actually, whether or not it's the case), have you disabled
NetBIOS over TCP/IP? If you are running a home network, use NetBEUI
instead; if not, you should not be running anything except TCP/IP.
