How to Remove stats.mydatastatssrv.com Completely

Complaints about stats.mydatastatssrv.com:
I occasionally receive the following Web Shield Pop Ups: http://stats.mydatastatssrv.com/stats.gif?action . The web blocker pops up on the occasion when I start running my laptop or, in some rare instances, when chrome opens up. The pop up will repeat itself about 8 to 10 times in succession, with the pop up indicating how many times. The good news is whatever this is, Avast says it has been blocked. I cannot seem to find any relevant data on this. Avast shows my system as always clean, and no followup info.

Have run Avast Clean and Boot Scan, Comodo Cleaning Essentials, ADW Cleaner and Malware bytes. There was a couple of Adware Pup's, but everything has checked out fine now. Yet , Web Shield still occasionally pops up with this same URL warning.
