Blocked IP Address

[deepp1969]

On the task bar Malwarebytes pops up on my mothers computer. It says that it has successfully blocked a suspicious site. It then gives an IP address of 125.65.112.161. I have been looking thru the forum and I have seen that IP listed. The IP seems to be from China somewhere. Does anyone know if this is a false positive or do I need to be concerned?

Welcome to Malwarebytes! If it blocked it thats good! The site leads to buy more "stuff" from China. First it was all in the Chinese Language. Second it advertised Candy and tolet paper on page 1... Please post any more questions or let us know if we can do anything else for you... regards...

Thank you, Can you tell me is there a way to have Malware stop flashing it on the task bar every 5 min?

If you move on to another website, it should stop. The .txt file with the IP info thats blocked the website, is saved in your pc. There located here:

Windows 2000 & Windows XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs

Windows Vista & newer:

C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs
