Outbound Connections on Computer (riskware/compromised)

[Baymax]

Hello

Hopefully I'm posting this right as I don't often use forums, but just in the last day I'm receiving outbound connection warnings. The chrome one only shows up on a specfic website so I don't go there as its been compromised but now I'm getting messages about my valheim game being compromised does this mean my systems full of viruses and multiple systems are infected and i need to uninstall all of m games and reset my system?

Sincerely Taylor

While we wait for the staff to review, I want to pass some info on to you, The Staff will check the IP's and if not bad anymore they will delist it.

It must be due to some server(s) the games are trying to connect to. Steam and many others use p2p connections to play online which often triggers IP blocks like this.

The game itself is not a virus.

Ooooh I see, I did check the IPs and they seemed to be server companies but to different countries so was still worried. But this is most likely innocent then, I noticed the IP on the chrome was on amazon advertisements on a site I was visiting, so was my chrome just interacting with the ad services on that webpage?

First time in years I have had any outbound connection warnings and I don't download untrusted software or links but my scans aren't showing up any viruses in the game folders or on the system so i assume my system is safe then?

Thanks for the quick reply! eases the mind!

Thanks Baymax,

The IPs are now clean, so we will remove the blocks. Thank you for reporting them!

hello, I have now been receiving a bunch more of these outbound warnings from the games from many ips, but there was one today thats registered as a trojan outbound to an ip while the game is active. Should i be worried? I scanned the file origin but nothing showed up wrong.

If you continue with the paid version of Malwarebytes after the trial, I suggest you look at the play mode section of Malwarebytes to suppress these warnings when playing games.
