MalwareBytes blocked access to Potentially Malicious Site


Recommended Posts

Hello there,

For some reason MalwareBytes is blocking IP addresses constantly, every day.

One example:

08:17:09 Ben MESSAGE Protection started successfully

08:17:13 Ben MESSAGE IP Protection started successfully

09:15:26 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

09:15:26 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

09:15:34 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:40 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:40 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:48 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:48 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:48 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

10:15:48 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

11:48:18 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

11:48:26 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

11:48:26 Ben IP-BLOCK 89.28.6.89

That was from today.

THe log from yesterday:

Hi, and Welcome to Malwarebytes!

This ip is located in Republic of Moldova

Are you using any P2P software like Utorrent, BitTorrent, Limewire or the like? Do you use Skype? Sometimes these try to connect to strange sites.

If not, then there could be a rootkit or something on your computer causing this so you may want to have the experts take a look at it to be sure.....

Please read the following so that you can begin the cleaning process:

As we don't deal with malware removal in the General Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware Forum, you need to start a topic in the Malware Removal forum so a qualified helper can help you fix any malware related problems/infections you may have.

  • Please read and follow the directions here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete. Then post a NEW topic here.
  • After posting your new post, make sure under options, you select Track this topic and choose Immediate Email Notification, so that you're alerted when someone has replied to your post.
  • One of the expert helpers there will give you one-on-one assistance when one becomes available.
  • Please refrain from making any further changes to your computer (Install/Uninstall programs, use special fix tools, delete files, edit the registry, etc...) unless advised by a malware removal helper. Doing so can result in system changes which may hinder the attempts by a helper to clean your machine.

NOTE: Please DO NOT post back to (bump) your topic within the first 48 hours.

Replying to your own posts changes the post count and helpers are looking for topics with zero replies. If you reply to your own post helpers may think that you're already being helped and thus overlook your post.

    • If there is no reply from any experts after 48 hours, you can reply to the topic, asking for help again.
      Or
    • You may send a Private Message to a Moderator asking for assistance.

Alternatively, as a paying customer, you can contact the help desk at support@malwarebytes.org or here.

Please be patient, someone will assist you as soon as it is possible.

PS: Please use the "ADDREPLY" t_reply.gif button instead of other ones when you start replying. :(
