I keep getting this message popping up from Kaspersky that it keeps blocking an attack from another computer. I rand CCleaner, disk clean up, and even restarted my computer but it didn't work.

Kaspersky keeps blocking it but it's kind of freaking me out that someone is attacking my computer.

The message says that the address can't be blocked and it's using spoofing or something like that.

What do I do?

Does it show the address or IP number that is attacking you?

Download TrendMicro HijackThis.exe (HJT) to the Desktop.

  • Double-click on HJTInstall.
  • Click on the Install button.
  • It will automatically place HJT in C:\Program Files\TrendMicro\HijackThis\HijackThis.exe.
  • Upon install, HijackThis should open for you.
  • Click on the Do a system scan and save a log file button
  • HijackThis will scan and then a log will open in notepad.
  • Copy and then paste the entire contents of the log in your post.
  • Do not have HijackThis fix anything yet. Most of what it finds will be harmless or even required.

Actually it seems like it stopped. I checked the Kaspersky website forums and the message I kept getting was under the list of frequently received messages. It said that it was a Helkern worm and that if my internet security and my computer is fully updated (which it is) then I'm fine. I was just annoyed with it because the pop up message kept coming up every two minutes. I went ahead and did a scan anyway and it said that nothing was detected.

I think you should check that it if it is a hardware fault such as overheating?
