Subsequent to the Firefox browser product upgrade to version 57.0, I've been getting multiple reports per day from Malwarebytes regarding suspicious web activity. I tracked it down to this: Domain: ss.symcd.com IP: 23.61.187.27 Port: 62699 Type: Outbound Connection File: c:\program files (x86)\mozilla firefox\firefox.exe

Please advise if there is a fix for this.

It is a false positive. Do a manual update of Maywarebytes database. It should solve the problem.
