I keep getting a popup saying a process and IP has been blocked when I try to run a game launcher called "Six Launcher" that runs Arma2 mods (specifically the DayZ mod in my case).

See log below

I tried adding the gslist.exe to the Ignore list but it still drops that loginfo and the ballon with the blocked IP on me when I start up the launcher.

I don't quite understand it as it says it's blocked first, then says stopping IP protection, then starting it again?

The launcher seems to still run fine, though it takes a minute before I can see correct ping on servers (listed as 9999 ping, aka no connection, until it seems the IP protection allows the connection).

What gives?

I'm looking into it, thank you.

Any news on this or what causes it ?

The game seems to run it's just a slight annoyance to have the balloon give me warnings each time.

It's occurring because it's trying to reach 109.236.85.132. Without a packet capture (you can use Wireshark for this), it's difficult to tell exactly why it is trying to reach this IP. The IP itself used to belong to a name server, but not anymore (stranger still, is its still responding on port 80, but not returning content), it was also a game server for dayzmod.com for a while, but isn't responding on any of the ports they used.

The IP itself, is part of a wider range that has been blocked due to malicious content being present. I'm working with the AS owner to get it cleaned up.

i found this thread doing a google search for "malwarebytes dayz".

i'm having the same issue with the pop warning and block even after adding gslist.exe to ignore. it was also taking several minutes for a game to load after joining a server (at least 2 or 3 minutes). when alt-tab to desktop the malware pop-up would eventually came up indicating it blocked suspicious activity. i bought the game the first of this week and the load times were the same on every server i tried. today i disabled malwarebytes before playing and the game loaded in seconds. i tested on 6 different servers with and without the AV turned on. with it on it took on average 2 minutes to get into the game. with it off, 20 seconds...
