Then I'm guessing that either:

a) you've changed something on you computer, perhaps installed/upgraded a piece of software, or changed the way that it's working, or that
b) something has changed on your computer without you knowing, possibly spyware/malware, or something's updated/upgraded itself.

The third possibility is that your router is starting to fail, and the odd firewall related symptoms are the first signs of that - I would suggest it would be unusual for this to manifest itself in this way though.
