Is Malware Suspected In Causing These Detections?

Getting inbound/outbound detections for a couple of IP addresses. All within the last two days. These show as being from China:
Detection, 9/20/2014 7:18:48 PM, SYSTEM, MY-VAIO, Protection, Malicious Website Protection, IP, 218.9.30.102, 50427, Inbound, C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe,
Detection, 9/20/2014 7:18:48 PM, SYSTEM, MY-VAIO, Protection, Malicious Website Protection, IP, 218.9.30.102, 50427, Outbound, C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe,
 
Outbound Detection for an this IP. Shows from Egypt:
Detection, 9/19/2014 11:43:50 AM, SYSTEM, MY-VAIO, Protection, Malicious Website Protection, IP, 41.35.122.179, 60852, Outbound, C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe

All were blocked but wondered if there was anything to be concerned about (especially if they are outbound) like a trojan or anything malicious? Also, have a Comcast (Cisco) Wireless Gateway so don't know if I can block these individual ports or is that kine of useless anyway?Thanks!

Hi there,
my name is Marius and I will assist you with your malware related problems.

Before we move on, please read the following points carefully.

  • First, read my instructions completely. If there is anything that you do not understand kindly ask before proceeding.
  • Perform everything in the correct order. Sometimes one step requires the previous one.
  • If you have any problems while following my instructions, Stop there and tell me the exact nature of your problem.
  • Do not run any other scans without instruction or add/remove software unless I tell you to do so. This would change the output of our tools and could be confusing for me.
  • Post all logfiles as a reply rather than as an attachment unless I specifically ask you. If you can not post all logfiles in one reply, feel free to use more posts.
  • If I don't hear from you within 3 days from this initial or any subsequent post, then this thread will be closed.
  • Stay with me. I will give you some advice about prevention after the cleanup process. Absence of symptoms does not always mean the computer is clean.
  • My first language is not english. So please do not use slang or idioms. It could be hard for me to read. Thanks for your understanding.

  • Important: To help me reviewing your logs, please post them in code boxes. You can create them by clicking on the <>-symbol on top of the reply window.


 
 
 
 
HijackThis is not the preferred initial scanning tool in this forum. With today's malware, a more comprehensive set of logs is required to determine the presence of malware.
 
 
 
 
Scan with FRST in normal mode

Please download Farbar's Recovery Scan Tool to your desktop: FRST 32bit or FRST 64bit (If not sure: Start --> Computer (right click) --> properties)
 

  • Run FRST.
  • Don´t change one of the checkboxes and hit Scan.
  • Logfiles are created on your desktop.
  • Poste the FRST.txt and (after the first scan only!) the Addition.txt.

 
 
 
 
 Scan with aswMBR

Please download aswMBR ( 4.5MB ) to your desktop.
  • Double click the aswMBR.exe icon, and click Run.
  • There will be a short delay before the next dialog box comes up. Please just wait a minute or two.
  • When asked if you'd like to "download the latest Avast! virus definitions", click Yes.
  • Typically this is about a 100MB download so depending on your connection speed it can take a short while to download and become ready.
  • Click the Scan button to start the scan once the update has finished downloading
  • On completion of the scan, click the save log button, save it to your desktop, then copy and paste it in your next reply.


Note: There will also be a file on your desktop named MBR.dat do not delete this for now. It is an actual backup of the MBR (master boot record).
