I have Road Runner (I know...ick..hack...barf) and I see a lot of DNS
connections going to local broadcast addresses (68.39.224.255 using your
example).  Could this be it?

Define what you mean by "scan".  What "system" or utility is informing
you 
of this?

How well do you understand DNS?
Most likely it is nothing more than 'normal' NS-resolution traffic to
and 
from your host.

With a little more situational info (maybe even a copy of what you're 
logging) we can figure out the reason for the traffic.
