Port scan has been detected

Hello,
My firewall is detecting port scan from address 200.208.28.45
I have set a rule to deny incoming traffic from that address for all the range of ports, but still I see on the firewall log that a port scan was done from that address and the action taken by the firewall was "permitted"
This happens when I open the I.E.

My question is, why the firewall is permitting the port scan if a have set a rule to deny ?
and also, could be this "port scan" activity a problem for me ?

Thanks.

I believe Kerio has a stealth mode. Go to

On the left side of your browser, you'll notice tests. Click on the Stealth Test to see if you're properly cloaking your ports.
