Malwarebytes suddenly reporting outgoing malicious website warnings


Recommended Posts

Observation: Updating Database Version seems to solve problem. 

Problem: Malicious Website Protection, IP, 239.255.255.250, [various ports], Outbound >>> for both svchost.exe and Google Chrome

Details:

Followed advice on thread about updating Database Version.

IP Database from 2017.3.1.5 to 2017.3.2.2 >>> Seemed to cause the issue as noted earlier in thread.

IP Database from 2017.3.2.2 to 2017.3.2.3 >>> Seemed to fix issue for me.

That's not Malwarebytes v3; looks like an earlier version AFAIR. Haven't located database info in V3 so far! :-(

Same thing here... multiple PCs, multiple locations.  Updating the database doesn't help.  (Where the heck is the database version listed in v3???)

However my v2.2.1 MBAM install isn't having the issue just those running the <beta/unstable> v3.0.6.

 

Edit: rebooting the PC after the update as recommended in one of the other threads about this issue makes no difference... Error remains.

Just to follow up, we pushed an update that fixes this. To fix the issue, simply update your copy of Malwarebytes (e.g. Malwarebytes 3.0 or Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.x) then reboot your PC.

If needed, here are the database versions that fix this:

  • Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.x Version: v2017.03.02.09
  • Malwarebytes 3 Version: 1.0.1404

If you continue to experience this issue, please let us know and confirm the database version you have installed
