Ok. Thank you for your assistance.

Yes. Could it be some type of browser/modem infection? Or is it just false positive flagging by MB?

Here you go. Thanks for sticking with me. I really appreciate it. FRST.txt Addition.txt

Upon researching the offending ip's, it appears that they all originate from the domain "popads.net". All addresses are numerically the same, except for the last two digits. They go from .13 to .14 and so on. I don't know if that helps. report2.txt

No. It happens with all browsers that I have used. IE, Firefox & Chrome. I have uninstalled Mozilla. I did try out Opera, just to see if something new would work, but it was affected as well. Mostly the connection attempts are being made by "adnetworkperformance.com". The others appear to just be a set of random letters followed by ".com" - that all appear to be sharing the exact same ip address. For instance, xpyyystxrtt.com would attempt to connect and then lmnopyyyrt.com would try to connect and both domains would be from the exact same ip address. It can be anywhere from 3-5 attempts all the way up to 30 some, as it cycles up and down the ports.

Here's the latest website blocked report from today. It seems that "howtoremove.guide" is now attempting an outbound connection. Is this something to worry about, TwinHeadedEagle? report.txt

Ok. log2.txt

There are no protection logs listed in reports.

The only files under Protection Event in the Reports section are "scan" and "website blocked". Through the following path C:/ProgramData/ Malwarebytes/Malwarebytes Anti-Malware/Logs I have many protection-logs, but they are in XML format. I can change them to .txt files, but they will not attach.

Could you explain where I should export it from? I'm not quite sure.

Disregard. I believe that I have located it, but it's in XML format and will not allow me to attach it.

Sure. Where is that located? <edit> Is this it? log.txt

It's the same. Three of four outbound connections are still being blocked.

Thank you for your help. Here's the updated log. Fixlog.txt

Hello. I have Malwarebytes Premium installed and it is blocking many outbound connection attempts on a particular website. The attempts are being made primarily by adnetworkperformance.com. Although, a few other nefarious looking addresses make attempts, as well. I have scanned with malwarebytes, eset, avast, adwcleaner, tdskiller and hitman pro x64. All scans come up clean. Attached below are my FRST scans. Any help would be greatly appreciated. FRST.txt Addition.txt
