MWB Warning on new IP address for 'safe' executables


rich86

Recommended Posts

This morning MWB on Windows has started presenting 'toast' pop ups warning me about a malicious website via ports 60074 and 52938 at:

239.255.255.250

The related executable is chrome.exe and spotify.exe. I've never had any warning about this address from either executable.

The warning are coming in quite regularly (see log attached).

Below is the whois lookup and I have attached a screenshot of the toast.

Can anybody give any more information on why I am getting this warning?
