My firewall notified me that it blocked an attempt to scan TCP ports. It
listed the port numbers such as 1382, 1391, 1399 etc. The attempted scan
came from us.i1.yimg.com. What if anything can I do to the scan attempt?

What kind of FW? If the FW/packet filter is blocking the scans, then why
are you worried about it?

So, you lost some disk space. BFD.

Now, you can use, in no order of importance,
http://isc.sans.org/port_details.php?port=1399 http://lists.thedatalist.com/portlist/lookup.php?port=1399 http://www.dshield.org//port_report.php?port=1399
To see what they are.

Unplug your system from the internet.
Anything you try to do to the offending ip address could get YOU into trouble.
Other option is to email reason/log to the machine owner and/or the Internet
Service Provider.

Obviously you have some network settings screwed so that the answers for
the requests (your browser wants to display a website containing images
fro us.i1.yimg.com) are not getting through.

Well, one thing you can do is ignore it. If you don't have services
listening on those ports there's nothing to get worked up about.
