    Recently Malwarebytes has been issuing pop-ups saying that access has been prevented to a potentially unsafe site with IP address 46.19.138.10.
    I have no clue as to what might be requesting this access.
    I have run full scans with Malwarebytes and aVast, both of which came up clean.

    Any ideas anyone?

    The app is Sickbeard and the IP address is that of Usenet-Crawler which I am fairly sure is safe.
    I have passed the info on to MalwareBytes.

    I would if I knew how.
    Have never found a "marked as solved" option.
