ih5 or ih6googleusercontent

[Douw]

Hi guys, Im a first time user of this community and love my malwarebytes!!

 

Today I get a persistent popup that says ih6googleusercontent or ih5googleusercontent.

 

I googled it to no avail and wonder if it dangerous as Malwarebytes blocks it? Is is save to add it to exclusions so the persistent popup will disappear?

Hello Douw:

Your indications strongly hint at system infection and malware removal actions are not permitted in this subforum.

I recommend following the advice from the topic: Available Assistance for Possibly Infected Computers and have one of the Malware Removal Experts assist you with your issue.

If, as recommended, you do open a topic in Malware Removal Help, please make reference to this thread.

If you would like to get off to a very fast start, the Malware Removal Experts would appreciate it if you would also Copy and Paste (not attach) both the FRST.txt and the Addition.txt output diagnostic reports from only Log Set 1 into your new topic. Please do not tick, nor untick, any pre-configured FRST categories.

Thank you.

Hello, @Douw:

 

Actually, there was a "false positive" for this that was fixed yesterday.

Please see here for just one of several similar reports.

 

Please update your MBAM database.

The detections/notifications should stop.

 

If they do not stop after updating the database, then it would be a good idea to follow @1PW's advice to get a bit of help checking the system for malware.

 

Thanks,
