Malwarebytes pop-up message each time opening WMP


Diana80

Recommended Posts

I have the full paid version of Malwarebytes and each time that I open Windows Media Player now, Malwarebytes keeps displaying the message "Anti-Malwarebytes has successfully blocked IP 213.174.154.144 ". It just started today after I was doing a lot of playing on the internet earlier. So I ran a full scan with MB checking everything and it said there were no infections and I also did a full scan with my anti-virus and it also came up with no results.

I was instructed to come here and post the "Attach," "DDS," and Malwarebytes logs and I have attached them to this post. I could not get GMER to work though (it kept freezing my computer). Please let me know what to do next. Thank you.

I accidently posted a "quick scan" log instead of the full scan log from MB. I've attached the full one here.

Since attaching the documents doesn't seem to be working, let me just copy and paste them:
