As title have a few malwarebytes alerts from a user but only have an IP address of the site?

Cheers chaps
 
A reverse IP lookup is what you want (or rather, will do what you're asking) http://www.viewdns.info/reverseip/

Of course, Steveocee is right that the results you'll get will simply list every site that's hosted rather than just one though.

Packet inspection is really the only route. Or... send the user the list and says "Oi! Which one of these dodgy sites are you visiting?"

OR.. you could visit each one in turn and monitor your own traffic.
 
Cheers chaps seems to be going on to sites to watch fuzball and popups are setting off malwarebytes
 
Have that part sorted just trying to locate or contact a rogue computer IP on the network now or block it all together on a draytek 2860
 
Cmd Prompt -> ping -a *ip*

That's just the rDNS record for the IP address so of very little use in this case.


As previously mentioned; http://www.viewdns.info/reverseip/ is the best method to view domains hosted on an IP.

Going on to sites to watch football will no doubt be filled with ads.

Just disabled the notifications from Malwarebytes, it's doing it's job. ;) Wouldn't worry about it at all.
 
Adblocker? Could even be worth spinning up a pihole DNS to run locally, *should* purge the stuff you don’t want before it even downloads it.
