Since yesterday afternoon ESET a/v has been reporting that it has blocked access to 7g6njejx.com, roughly every ten minutes. That domain name does not exist, but ESET also gives me the IP. The IP given cycles through five addresses - and every one points to Amazon on every IP check site I can find - specifically the Amazon in Ashburn, Virginia on amazonaws.com. It has three goes in every session to connect, and then ten minutes later tries another of the five IPs.
At first I thought it might be related to MS Outlook, as that downloads every ten minutes, but it isn't. I can't see anything likely in Task Manager either.
Anybody seen this before, or have any idea what is going on? Even if all my browsers are closed, it still keeps popping up - AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY*!!!!!!
* Well, OK, crazier, then.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

No - first thing I checked.
|
|
|
|
|
I'm also using ESET and i got this pop up also. What the hell is going on?
|

I had exactly the same issue since today.
I ran a full ESET scan - nothing.
I ran a full Malwarebytes scan - nothing.
I ran a full Search&Destroy scan - nothing.
Yet the ESET popups about blocked access to 7g6njejx.com kept coming.
When I checked the ESET logs it reported this as a JS/Redirector.NDS trojan.
The traffic was caused by ExpressVPN executable in my case, specifically:
C:\Program Files (x86)\ExpressVPN\xvpnd\xvpnd.exe
I uninstalled ExpressVPN but the issue persisted.
I then remembered that ExpressVPN installs brower extension and sure enough they were still present.
I removed the browser extensions and the popups stopped.
My concern is that none of the Antivirus/Malware checks found anything yet it was clearly happening.
So I am not sure whether my system is clean now.

Thanks for that - yesterday I upgraded ExpressVPN, and then used it for a couple of hours. I did not install the browser extensions, so I am now going to rip it out, and see what happens.
|
|
|
|
|
Yup - all gone!  Thanks! 
The reason I leapt at your conclusion that it was ExpressVPN is that I when went through all the s/w listed in ESET, ExpressVPN was the only one with an orange "May be dodgy' mark against it, instead of a green tick.
Annoyingly I still have four months yet to run on my subscription. 
… but the 64K$ question is - why amazonaws.com?

An easy way of getting IP-numbers in the right countries? And since Netflix et.al. also use Amazon themselves they could shoot themselves in the foot if they blocked IP-numbers indiscriminately.

amazonaws is a playground for hackers & phishers.
First thing to do would be to identify the process from which is originating the request to the external IP. Did you have any browser process opened while checking your task manager? Because a simple periodic refresh on a web page would cause this kind of symptoms.

I did a clean reboot, and touched nothing - just left it sitting there for ten minutes, and then - boom! That's how I knew it wasn't Outlook.
Anyway, all fixed now courtesy of Member 10451815.
