What is this? Tries to install with blockchain download.

EDIT: Twice 4 times its come up now

uploaded my 'nxt_db' to see if it helps. It's in a .zip folder.

let me know if avast still comes up with the notification. Sorry if its on mega...you can send it through a virus checker if you want to make sure Smiley

edit:Also the exact thing is being talked about in the NXT forums. (Doesn't seem to have anything to do with the blockchain download.)


Doesn't seem to be anything to worry about. https://nxtforum.org/security/avast-detects-malware-int-nxt-address/msg150968/#msg150968

This is not a VPS, it is a VPN exit IP, shared by multiple users. Just like a tor exit node, it can happen that at some time somebody is abusing it to send spam or malware. It is only port 7874 that points to a Nxt peer node.
