    hello,

    i was monitoring my home network and noticed a client on my network (winxpsp2 w/ windows defender) repeatedly tries to connect to ivelog.com over port 80 and 8080. it tries to connect roughly once a minute. i have researched ivelog.com exhaustively to no avail. anyone know anything about this?

    thanks

    Hi

    Seems to be linked with spam emails ( I have noticed this url in many pill and adult spam emails, plus on quite a few message boards posted in links ) and could also well be part of a malware infection thats trying to get to that URL and download further malware onto the PC, as the default home page to ivelog is a search box.

    If you wish to see if this is indeed malware on that client on your network then do run the below,

    Please follow the instructions in the below link and attach the requested logs when you finish these instructions.
