iptables logs spam

I have logs full of this:

 iptables denied: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:00:50:56:a1:57:a9:08:00 SRC=78.41.200.xxx DST=78.41.200.255 LEN=78 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=4768 PROTO=UDP SPT=137 DPT=137 LEN=58

SRC=78.41.200.xxx is mostly the same IP (but not always).

Anyone has any idea what this is?

    This is InceptionHosting VPS in NL and I'm also on 78.41.200.xxx, so it's someone on the same network polling or broadcasting or whatever, I'm just interested in finding out what kind of traffic is this and why am I seeing this every second or so.

    Poor lonely Windows ...

    It makes sense now, although I still don't see why it's doing it every second.

    I have had that before on a KVM VPS of mine where the provider purports Windows as a guest although it didn't click to me that it was Windows' fault.
