I love the Malwarebytes product, but need some expert insight on something. On my system it continually blocks the same IP address/website. It is 212.117.170.54 which resolves to v6.ippages.com and is in Luxemburg. I get the popup that it blocks it multiple times a day and this has been going on for quite some time. I guess my question in two-fold:

  1. What is this site?
  2. Why does my system continually try to go there? Do I have an infection?

If anyone has any knowledge or experience with this, I would love to have your input.

Thanks, Gary

I had this same problem. Once I uninstalled the SearchStatus 1.36 addon, it stopped trying to connect to that IP.

The above is a quote from the Firefox forum early this month (from memory) -

If you run F/fox you need to remove this add-on -

If you do not run Firefox , or can not disable the add-on please read this and follow the directions for free help -

Please read I'm infected - What do I do now? and then post the required logs in the Malware Removal forum so we can help clean up the infection.

Thank You -
