v.5.x Update error...

[dont_touch_my_buffer]

Windows 10 desktop running MB v.5.x, outbound connections are controlled by the firewall....

Every time the MB updated, it throws the error bellow:

Looking at the firewall logs shows, that the "C:\program files\malwarebytes\anti-malware\malwarebytes.exe" tries to connects to a number of IP addresses on port 443. Trying to add exception for the IPs works for the session so to speak, but next time it might be different IPs. Is there a block of IPs that should be allowed?

Thx...

I use IP addresses, not domain names. The list of domain names come back with different IPs, even within a short time period. 

I can get the IPs via the "dig", "nslookup", but that may not work. Even if the IPs would be added to the "host" file, since the IPs will change. 

I guess, I'll need to find a different way to resolve it.

Thx for your help...

No massive change in years. Not sure what has changed on your end as you appear to be a long time user.

I took a sabbath from MB during the last couple years, changed how I run my desktops. In the meantime as a positive news, Malwarebytes got better and bigger, resulting in load balancing their servers for the increased demands. It's all good, thx for your help...
