I am recently seeing wireless notifications about 169.254.235.25 being added. Whois says it is from BLACKHOLE-1.IANA.ORG. What is this? Should I be blocking them,and if so,how?
Do you know that IP or that domain ?!
If not, just block them

How do I block them? I wanted to make sure that this is not a BitDefender domain.
I looked at the advanced Firewall rules,and among those that came with the BitDefender installation are:
index 5: allow everything for any application on a an adapter that is "Full Trust"
index 6: same thing for an adapter that is "Trusted Local"
index 7: deny everything on a "Blocked" adapter
The only adapter listed in the Network section are my "wirelss network connection" does this mean that my firewall is open to everything???

[/quote I added 0.0.0.0 169.254.236.25 to my drivers\etc\hosts file. Does this block it? Was 169.254.235.25 an external site getting into my system or just some internal mechanism (UDP)/ The address of my router is standard 192.......
