Popups from Malwarebytes

[Connor12462]

So, I've been having some problems recently. As soon as I got on the 14 day free trial for Malwarebytes premium, it's been constantly blocking this website called coinhive, which is reported with many numerous IPs and ports, and sometimes even different URLs. The usual URL is just coinhive but it can sometimes have a ws(Insert randomly generated number here) and then the coinhive URL. Its been continually blocking them non stop for the past 40+ minutes and I am currently running a scan which seems to have not found anything just yet (Its about 80% done.) Please respond as quick as possible, as I may think someone is trying to bitcoin mine off of my PC or infect my PC.

If this is just a false positive however, please allow me to know, if not, let me know if I need to go to the malware removal thread

Update: The scan I was running has found 6+ threats on my PC, it seems that the problem may be resolved, I will respond with further news if anything important happens

That's great news!

In that case, I will move this topic to Malware Removal forum.

Are you still needing help, or is your issue resolved Connor12462...?

Thank you,

My issue seems to be resolved, as soon as the 5 PUPs and 1 adware (which was probably the cause of the popups, redirects most likely) were quarantined and removed, the popups finally stopped. Thank you for the concern Kevin and Dashke.

Thanks for the update Connor12462, good to hear your issue is resolved. If possible can you post the Malwarebytes log that shows the removal entries....

Open Malwarebytes, select > Reports > then checkmark (tick) the applicable "Scan Report" entry > then select "View Report" > "Export" > Text File (*.txt) name and save that file to Desktop or somewhere of your choice, attach to your reply...

Thank you,

Kevin...
