Calling home

[BillCherryAtl]

Hey folks. I've been receiving an alert that Malwarebytes has blocked out-going traffic with IP xxx.xx.xx.xx (it changes). I've attempted to use my Process Explorer and TCP port viewer to identify what's calling home. I've checked the IP's and in each case it is to places with which I have no connection like China and some advertising firm in California. I've done a HJT scan before checking it myself but could not find the culprit. It was suggested to me that In post it here knowing other eyes may see something I do not see. BTW, the calling home generally occurs shortly after boot but rarely after that.

Hi and welcome to Malwarebytes.

Are you connected to the Internet when "it's phoning home?"

Download DDS by sUBs and save it to your Desktop.

Double-click on the DDS icon and let the scan run. When it has run two logs will be produced, please post the one that is not minimized.
