@Marcos i just want to reiterate that the frequent notification about a particular website being blocked from eset has already stopped even before i created the firewall rules. I just wanted to make sure that the thing that was causing the frequent notification isn't running its business in the background or is my PC still infected etc.
As of now, as per your suggestion i have installed trial version of Eset Internet Security 12.0.31.0 (still 25 days left ) also scanned the whole system with it but no harmful content were discovered. I have also installed MS17-010.
thanx @itman. I've created a new rule in Win firewall to block all in/out for application dllhost.exe. Also i have not stopped the previous rule created for IP address.
@Marcos link is broken. Upon clicking the link, a .exe file was downloaded but the file does not run while trying to open it.
But i searched for Eset Vulnerability Checker and ran the application and i got this,
@itman Notifications from eset halted even before i created the firewall rules. maybe eset took care of the virus. About the registry, i cud not find anything of that sort of entry. Here's the screenshot.
@Marcos Link to the tool you mentioned, it does not work. And btw, i have created a firewall rule to block anything inbound/outbound related to the IP address 51.15.90.178.
@itman i don't from where did u get all that but i'm certainly going to block that ip address just incase. Those were some scary lines i just read. Thank you for the concern. Now i just i have figure out how to block "all TCP/UDP traffic inbound/outbound for IP address 51.15.90.178".
The application column shows the following:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\dllhost.exe
Now, what action do you suggest i follow ? should i delete the file ? i don't have any experience regarding system files.
Hi,
i am frequently receiving notification from eset of a website that it is blocking. I don't know what application in my PC is trying to access this website. Please help. I have attached a screenshot of this.
