198.91.80.25 is being used by known malware as a command & control (C&C) server.
Command & control servers transmit instructions remotely to the malware on infected hosts, so any interaction with a known command and control server signals a system compromise.
The risks associated with C&C servers include widespread malware infection (potentially beyond a single system), service disruption, session hijacking, information leakage and more.

What I’ve heard, I can’t have two antivirus thingies at the same time that it would cause some problems
should I just do it? I’m kind of panicking at the moment because I dunno what the first reply meant
Is my pc infected or in danger right now or what

Also the farbar thing is doing “checking for updates” “update found” over and over again and I can’t even close it from task manager while it’s doing that
That makes it so I can’t use it since it closes itself over and over again and opens automatically too

a malware expert is notified, he may not be online before tomorrow
I see you have lots of IObit software. You may want to read this and do with the info as you want

Have patience and wait till one of the listed malware removers guide you.
Don’t change anything on the system.

No need for it.
It is not the doctor telling you are infected, only your system is
