207.232.22.60 and Malwarebytes
« on: September 16, 2012, 07:41:43 AM »

M'bytes  has from yesterday been reporting blocking 207.232.22.60. It relates to outgoing connections and each time the port number differs, but usually in the high 4xxxx range. My firewall (Private) also asked for permission for Mozilla and rund.dll. the latter seeming odd.

M'bytes yesterday did a full scan, as did AVG Free 2013.

As the attacks can be less than 10 mins apart is there anymore I ought do?

That IP address is owned by Elron Technologies, which may or may not mean something to you.

As such "no",but further check shows ELron is a hosting company, which inter alia is used by facebook chat.
Elsewhere it is suggested that one just selects not to have pop up alerts enabled in M'Bytes.

Thanks for the lead. :)
