What should I do to protect my computer when I suddenly received numerous IP address attacks (spoofing)?

All of a sudden I received numerous warnings from my Malwarebytes Professional that malicious websites I think it was were trying to connect to these ports (and more, these are ones I have noted down so far):

1900
61875
57333
65139
58347
64920

I am proofreading a book now, and am hardly using the internet. Only now and then I search Google for contents relating to Jewish mysticism. Then I have some other websites open like an online dictionary, playing relaxing music from Youtube from the same video all the time, that is all.

What should I do? Will Malwarebytes prevent all intruding attempts or will anything slip through? I need to continue working because I have too much work to do, can not just turn off the computer and do nothing.

It always comes from the same IP address: 239.255.255.250
