jpchaparro Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105639 Share Posted March 2, 2017 This started today I did clean up, reset chrome, and use kasper sky removal tool. This pop up keeps coming up every min or so, or everytime I open a tab. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnGibel Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105654 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Me too. I just got the problem with web protection solved yesterday and now I get these. It looks like people all over the web are getting them in several different security related applications like Symantec, Malwarebytes, etc.... Whats going on !!! I tried disabling notifications but that does not help, I also tried adding an exception for the IP 239.255.255.250, no luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpchaparro Posted March 2, 2017 Author ID:1105657 Share Posted March 2, 2017 So this might be an issue with an update today then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danull Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105658 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I think false positive, seems to be related to Simple Service Discovery Protocol. How this made it through their "testing" is beyond me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozen Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105696 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Seeing the same thing here on MBAM 3.0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickmb Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105705 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Exactly the same problem as of this morning 3/2. It isn't just Chrome, I get it if I open File Explorer. Then I continue to get these outbound Website blocked 239.255.255.250 on a variety of ports every minute or two until both File Explorer and Chrome are closed. It's got to be a Malwarebytes issue. I didn't change anything on my system and I've never had this problem before. For now I've had to disable Web Protection. Of course, that's certainly not an acceptable bypass.

gagaman Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105708 Share Posted March 2, 2017 (edited) And also happens here. IP: 239.255.255.250 Portnumber is variable. Edited March 2, 2017 by gagaman typo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris623 Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105709 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Been happening to me all morning. I'm using Windows 7 and Firefox. I've gotten probably 50 popups in the last hour. Their are all websites blocked and marked as Outbound. This has never happened before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyC Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105713 Share Posted March 2, 2017 This just started for me this morning too, with chrome, slightly varied 239.x.x.x and different TCP ports. I'm on version 3.06.1469 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhoneyman Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105724 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Ditto to all the above. Kind of annoying... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagaman Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105732 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Found this in another thread on this forum. Seems to solve the problem: Quote I can confirm also that updating to package v 1.0.1404 fixes the problem. Just right-click on the MWB icon in the system tray and click "check for updates." Alternatively, it seems that if you run your browser in incognito mode, that stops the alerts as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
danull Posted March 2, 2017 ID:1105742 Share Posted March 2, 2017 yep, appears to be fixed via that update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
