HI- I just downloaded Malwarebytes today. And I got messages that incomming Skype requests were being blocked. How can I configure Malwarebytes to allow the messages to get through?????

Hello therazor61:

In a reply to this topic, please copy/paste 6 or 7 lines from the relevant protection-log that show different IP addresses?

Thank you kindly for your patience.

Hello therazor61:

A very rapid check of only the topmost IP address shows this to be a mainland China (Beijing) based prolific attack source.

Another quick look at the remaining IP address shows its source to also originate from mainland China and it is almost certainly scanning your ports for system vulnerabilities. Your MBAM PRO is most certainly protecting you from these attacking IP addresses.

Are you truly quite sure you would like to let those IP addresses through and others like it? If you're quite sure you fully know and understand the possible consequences, I can instruct you on how to right-click the system tray MBAM icon and "Add to Ignore List".

You may read a very thorough explanation in Section G of the FAQ.

Hi-

China huh? I don't know anyone from there! I assume that you entered the IP address somewhere and it tells you where the message originated from? If so, where do you go and enter the IP address?

But, I do use Skype to see/talk to my kids and my brother. In me using the default set up, are they going to be able to start a Skype session with me? Or can I start sessions with them? If I'd need to, how would I add them to my ignore list?

Is there anything I need to do to on my side, or their side?

AND THANKS MUCH,

Ray

Hello Ray,

As long as it is only from Skype you should be fine and in general Skype should be working still. If not please let us know.

Are you having any other signs of infection or just these IP block messages for Skype?

HTH-

In the half day that I've had MBAM its just those 2 issues.

By the way, MBAM did I sweet job killing off the Canadian Pharmacy E-mail Virus that I had. Even the (free) product called the 'Canadian Pharmacy E-mail Virus Remover' (or something like that) couldn't even find it. Neither could avast! nor Norton.

Barring any new killer issues, I'll be buying MBAM after my free month runs out.

THANKS again,

Ray

I don't see where you reported any Virus or Malware. You asked about IP blocking which we do block many (not all) of the IP ranges that Skype uses.

What indication of a Virus or Malware do you have?

Please update MBAM and do a Quick Scan and post back the scan log.

Then post back your latest Protection Log as well.
