Thank you for your help

[I keep getting this pop up]

I see
I'll be honest, I didn't understand a lot of what you said but i appreciate you spending time to help me out.

So does that mean there's nothing to worry about?

It seems to have stopped on it's own, I don't know if that's good or bad.

A couple of possibilities here for this activity;

1. Something has modified your Win hosts file.

2. Something has set up a hidden localhost proxy server on your device.

Pertaining to 1)., open this file, C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\host, using Notepad. On Win 10, the only entries that should exist in the file are shown below;

If anything else exists in the your hosts file, post a screen shot of what is contained in the file.

It looks exactly the same as your screenshot

Also, open a command prompt window.

1. Enter this command, nslookup journal.stikosa-aws.ac.id

Take a screen shot of the output.

2. Enter this command, nslookup google.com

Take a screen shot of the output.

Post both screen shots.

here you go

It's strange that the IP address is localhost as the hostname normally resolves to 103.247.11.166.

Do you have any application or extension installed that might access the website in question?

Not as far as I know. No apps or extensions, I definitely have some academic journals downloaded but i've never visited that website before.

Ever since I turned on my computer today i've been repeatedly getting this pop up about "Address has been blocked"

It's at 1,000 messages and it's freaking me out 😅

I'm using Firefox as a browser and I do have some add ons but nothing i've added recently
I also did a computer scan but it's clean.

 

Should I be concerned? How can I get rid of it? Please help 😭
