Today I downloaded the new Firefox browser in to my computer. Suddenly Malwarebytes is continually blocking an outgoing website called ss.symcd.com . It is coming from the firefox folder. If it was once ok, but it recurs continually every few seconds. I am not sure what the web site is for or doing. Please explain as I do not wish to exclude it if it is a malicious website. I will need to us . I will need to use Google Chrome or Internet Explorer until I hear from you. Thanks so much

It is a false positive. Do a manual update of Maywarebytes database. It should solve the problem.
