peterchase Posted October 18, 2013 ID:743539 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I've just recently connected to Steam and Malwarebytes detected the IP that Steam connected to as malicious activity. When enter the log, it displayed the following message: 2013/10/18 10:11:24 -0500 BEAST Phu MESSAGE Starting protection2013/10/18 10:11:24 -0500 BEAST Phu MESSAGE Protection started successfully2013/10/18 10:11:24 -0500 BEAST Phu MESSAGE Starting IP protection2013/10/18 10:11:25 -0500 BEAST Phu MESSAGE IP Protection started successfully2013/10/18 10:41:16 -0500 BEAST Phu IP-BLOCK 58.241.15.179 (Type: outgoing, Port: 61233, Process: steam.exe)2013/10/18 10:41:16 -0500 BEAST Phu IP-BLOCK 58.241.15.179 (Type: outgoing, Port: 61233, Process: steam.exe)2013/10/18 10:41:16 -0500 BEAST Phu IP-BLOCK 58.241.15.179 (Type: outgoing, Port: 61233, Process: steam.exe)2013/10/18 10:41:16 -0500 BEAST Phu IP-BLOCK 58.241.15.179 (Type: outgoing, Port: 61233, Process: steam.exe) When I tried to connected to Steam again, Malwarebytes allowed it to process, so I presumed that Steam connected to a different IP and Port perhaps? Is this IP a false positive? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Spud Posted November 11, 2013 Staff ID:752333 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Steam, as with many other gaming clients rely on P2P for updates which can and does often contain IP addresses which have been blocked due to various reasons. This should not present a problem for you as your download client will simply grab the data from other IPs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryFCM Posted November 11, 2013 ID:752344 Share Posted November 11, 2013 We don't block 58.241.15.179. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
