I used to be a Comcast@Home employees, and yes, they do conduct daily port scans of port 19 looking for unsecured news servers. I'm not sure what the originating IP address is (it'll be a 24.xxx.xxx.xxx address) and I think they run the scan twice a day. As far as I know that's the only port they scan.
