Malwarebytes Blocking Various IP Address in Firefox, Cannot find more info about IPs. Should I be worried?


Recommended Posts

Malwarebytes has been fairly busy blocking IP addresses Firefox is connecting too, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I should be worried about this?

I have Googled and looked up each of the IP addresses that has been blocked, but it wasn't very enlightening. They don't look like sites I have been using (at least purposefully). I came accross this topic in this forum in the false positives section which talks about one of the IP addresses:

http://forums.malwar...showtopic=66032

The admin has asked the poster to put their logs in a new thread here, that post was quite a while ago, so I thought I should make a new post, I hope that was the right thing to do.

I did have a virus recently, between McAfee and Malwarebytes I thought I had removed it, but perhaps not? Scans from both these programs are coming up clean at the moment.

These are the IP addresses that have been blocked over the last month (most recent first):

94.100.19.132

208.73.210.29

208.73.210.125

98.142.249.235

184.107.150.126

79.137.237.81

82.98.86.163

I have run the DDS tool and attached the output:

Attach.txt

DDS.txt

I would be very greatful for any help identifying if this is a real problem. Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
