It means that one of your internal pc clients is attempting a DCC send/expect and is misconfigured. The internal client is using your external IP address. Since you (from the message) have the contrack/nat for irc loaded, they are calling this forged. Reconfigure the client to use its own internal ip NOT the ip it gets told it has from the server. I believe that both MIRC and Oskar Andreasson have my original, detailed instructions on how to do this on their sites.
