Inbound "attacks" from wininit.exe?

[Quazar]

Hello.

 

I got a pop-up yesterday saying "Malicious Website Blocked" and the process was wininit.exe (image)

 

I didn't think much of it, but today it appeared again, this time 4 or 5 times in a row. Should I be worried? I've done a full scan of my PC with Malwarebytes and Windows Defender and nothing came up.

Hello Quazar and

 

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium is doing its job well by blocking this intrusion attempt by a suspected malicious IP address and thereby protecting your computer.

 

These attempts will probably stop, in time, and may be loosely compared to incoming spam in ones email.

The logs indicate that something is causing programs to crash which may simply be software conflicts or it could be some type of infection. Inbound IP blocks are just that - a remote system attempting to contact your computer and we blocked it. Your firewall should also be setup to manage most of that type of blocking.

 

I would suggest following the advice from the topic here Available Assistance for Possibly Infected Computers and having one of the Experts assist you with looking into your issue.


Thanks
