Your IP network is 24.215.32.0 ?
This seems to me like an automated tool for searching live proxy servers. 
As you can see later, destination ports on your network go to 8001 and 8080 
as well, which are well known proxy ports.
This is probably some tool which tries to find publicly open proxies (there 
are several lists on the Internet, just do a search on Google).
