Starting on 4/17/17, I began to get blocking notifications from Malwarebytes when previewing or opening an email from CVS. The email is retrieving images from img.ed4.net. I notice that Bed Bath and Beyond emails are also now having images blocked. These are reputable companies that I have requested to send me advertising emails. I have gotten hundreds of these blocks since last week. Both of them are using img.ed4.net as an image hosting site. I have done extensive scans on my PC and find no malware. Is this a false positive? If not, what is Malwarebytes finding objectionable on this site? Two log files are reproduced below. The first is a block generated by auto-preview of an email in Outlook, the second happened when I chose to view an email as a website, and was generated from Chrome: [begin first report] Malwarebytes www.malwarebytes.com -Log Details- Protection Event Date: 4/17/17 Protection Event Time: 7:04 PM Logfile: Administrator: Yes -Software Information- Version: 3.0.6.1469 Components Version: 1.0.103 Update Package Version: 1.0.1750 License: Premium -System Information- OS: Windows 10 CPU: x64 File System: NTFS User: System -Blocked Website Details- Malicious Website: 1 , , Blocked, [-1], [-1],0.0.0 -Website Data- Domain: img.ed4.net IP Address: 23.216.55.8 Port: [50509] Type: Outbound File: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE (end) [begin second report] Malwarebytes www.malwarebytes.com -Log Details- Protection Event Date: 4/22/17 Protection Event Time: 9:41 AM Logfile: Administrator: Yes -Software Information- Version: 3.0.6.1469 Components Version: 1.0.103 Update Package Version: 1.0.1784 License: Premium -System Information- OS: Windows 10 CPU: x64 File System: NTFS User: System -Blocked Website Details- Malicious Website: 1 , , Blocked, [-1], [-1],0.0.0 -Website Data- Domain: img.ed4.net IP Address: 23.205.120.146 Port: [57834] Type: Outbound File: C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe (end)

I started happening to me as well on 4/17/17. Started with CVS emails, now Bed Bath and Beyond as well. These are reputable companies that I have requested to send me advertising emails. I have gotten hundreds of these blocks this week. Both of them are using img.ed4.net as an image hosting site. I have done extensive scans on my PC and find no malware. Is this a false positive?

This happened to me today as well. I updated earlier today to version 2.0.3.1025 on my Windows 8.1 computer. Everything seemed to be working OK. In the last hour or so I noticed that Malwarebytes sent up a notification saying that my computer was not protected. When I looked at the dashboard, it said that Malicious Website Protection was disabled. I clicked the FIX THIS button and nothing happened. I tried to manually turn it on in Settings | Detection and Protection and while the radio button would click on, the protection would not. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and it turned on momentarily, then turned off again. I tried running a scan, and it failed. Help, please!
