Annoying popups when using torrents


Recommended Posts

This IP pops up only when I open Tixati to d/l torrent files. I don't know if it's related specifically to Tixati or one of the seeds. When I was using Vuze for torrent downloads I'd get similar alerts for a different IP when downloading.

It's annoying to see the continuous pop-up's, but I haven't experienced any infections because of it. Either MB is doing its job properly, or it's a false positive.

Hello and B)

What you are seeing is Malwarebytes doing its job. The web-blocker is stopping connections to your computer that could possibly infect your computer. This is common when using torrent programs and P2P programs.

To disable IP block notifications open Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and click on the Protection tab. Uncheck the box next to Show tooltip balloon when malicious website is blocked. then close Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.

There should be no more notifications when a malicious site is blocked but the IP blocker will still be working :).
