Is this a false positive? IP 178.238.233.156

I am getting this popup every minute or so, I am giving examples from the log file as reference but by no means is the full log. All it tells me is the IP and that it is related to the svchost process. The popup shows every minute or less and I want to find out what is creating it (other than just the svchost indication, since they are a number of those running at one time) so I can take it out. The scanner states that the system is clean and checking this one for blacklisting shows that it is not blacklisted is the services I have checked. I cannot seem to be able to stop the popups unless I add this IP to the ignore list and I do not want to do that unitl I am sure it is not malware. Please help.
