eset smart security ESET Smart Security Notification Repeats > 1000

[TheEmpathicEar]

[If this is the wrong forum...] Windows 10 64-bit, ESS v10. ESS notification, "Address has been blocked", "https://proxy-ssl.allinviews.com", "https://proxy-ssl.sevenfiveten.com" [there may be more] from multiple IP addresses. As in the title, the counter in the notification has gone over a 1000 at times. I am not quite sure what to make of this? Or, how to pinpoint the offending application [if there is one]. I usually only have Google Chrome and an email client, "The Bat", running. I think it stopped when I closed Chrome. But, I would like to know if it is Chrome or one the many tabs I have open in it [or something else].

Of course, U can disable notifications, but this does not solve the problem.

Clean your caches & history! Maybe also try a better browser.

And if nothing helps then you might got a bad Malware, for example:

Wow! That is nasty... I'll start with the cache and history.

Well, I used Chrome's "Clear Browsing History". The only thing I omitted was "Media Licenses". The notification is back. It's already > 500 and counting. The other annoying thing about it is that if U move it almost off-screen, it moves back a bit and gets in the way. I glanced over the material in the above link. There must be some be tool that can help with this?

Hi!

You should install some antimalware software and put the scan.
ESET is not antimalware so it can only indicate to problems but it cant solve them.
Please install

First try another browser (for example Firefox) in order to see whether only Chrome is damaged or the whole system.

[It's just a thought...] I have been using uBlcock Origin plug-in in Chrome. Could this be the possible cause or solution here?

Would not really make sense... But you can try easily!
