So I downloaded Malwarebytes including the free 14 day Trial of active monitoring, and it is blocking a series of 'outbound Connections', all listed as file: "c/.... mozilla firefox/firefox.exe"
eg
pywvfnqepmpg.chaene.review
updatestar
dulodapqhdcs.chaeone.review
preciousversus.com
what on earth are these and why are they originating from firefox? None show up when I search the system as they seem to be part of or integrated into firefox.
any ideas?
