I run Malwarebytes as a virus/spyware software on my computer, and recently I have been getting pop-ups from it telling me that certain IP addresses are trying to access my computer. They are 93.174.93.19 and 89.248.169.9. They are both linked to a server called Ecatel, based in the Netherlands. My virus software companies tell me that I need to contact you in an effort to find out how I can stop this or block this server. Ecatel has been linked to a huge amount of spam and virus websites. Can you please tell me how I can block these IP addresses from accessing my computer? Thank you very much,

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
