Malwarebytes keeps giving me notifications (1 Viewer)

[Galileo]

I keep getting "Website blocked due to Trojan" popup notifications whenever I open new pages.  It is happening as I change from thread to thread here at FBGs, go to YouTube, Google search, whatever...  Scans are not finding any threats.  The popup notification identifies nextextlink.com as the domain, and I have seen several different IP addresses and Ports identified.  The notification also notes the Type as "outbound" and identifies the File as C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application/chrome.exe.    Any insights?

If it is lubed, should be ok.

Sounds like the lube has begun to work.

Well - the lube has 2 potential uses. One good. One bad.

Try to time your wave function collapse appropriately.

Are you using a Mac?  What OS, if not?

The only thing worse than a googlebot is a malwarebyte.

Windows 10.  I ended up resetting Chrome back to default settings and starting fresh.  This appears to have stopped the Malwarebytes notifications...at least I haven't gotten one since doing this about 45 minutes ago.

Checking on Bleeping Computer, I get this topic.  The response from their team included this link.  It seems that, as usual, the problem lies with Chrome.  Perhaps this will help.

(Mr R is the computer tech here.  I'm just trying to improve my skills- not that I will ever approach his level.)

Sorry, I don't mean to laugh at your expense - I just mean to laugh. 

Any progress?

FWIW I do the same thing on a regular basis.  According to the Malwarebytes people there was some sort of setting change in Chrome that caused the issue.
