TechWorld 2 MBAM popups

[AriothVulpe]

Hello,

Recently I noticed that malwarebytes is throwing a tantrum when I play Tech World 2. It's telling me that it's blocking outbound traffic to sso.anbtr.com. From what I understand based on trying to find answers on Google, apparently this used to be a service that tracked mod stats for Minecraft, but the domain no longer exists as intended and has been picked up by something that mbam and browser security extensions view as a potential threat.

I'd prefer to just silence all outgoing communication to this site, and keep playing, but I don't know which mod(s) are sending this traffic or how to modify the modpack so it doesn't do that anymore. Can anyone give some advice on this subject?

I've been working on a custom private modpack, and I believe the way to fix this is in the config folder, go to "\config\modstats.cfg" and disable "AllowUpdates". It seemed to work for me. (I'm assuming you are on 1.6.4)

Interesting... I was having the same issue with Obscurity. It would only pop on my AV when loading my SP game up. Once I was in the game it was fine. Sure enough changing this setting fixed it.

Glad it worked.
