Hi, this is my first post, I'm a grey haired wrinkly who's going to be confined to his house for the next 4 months (if Boris Johnson gets his way), so please be gentle with me.😀
I have Malwarebytes Premium. I let do its own thing. The flash screen shows that I'm protected - Awesome.
Yesterday I had a look at Settings and clicked the Notification Bell. It lists a few Blocked Websites going back over a couple of months. Everyone of them is "Outbound" an "incorrect" example: Domain: www.windowsfoneinfo.com. giving the File as: /Windows/_/_microsoftedgeCP.exe.
I just stupidly pasted the "incorrect" windowsfone link into the search browser and Malwarebytes jumped up saying it was a phishing site. This is listed as Outbound. I hadn't noticed Malwarebytes giving me previous warnings.
Would someone please be kind enough to explain why this would be classed as an Outbound Attack. I'd have thought it was Inbound, ie the website was trying to phish me.
Additionally, it lists microsoftedgeCP.exe, is this in someway infected?
Thanks in advance
