I modified the Stats.py file in the SideBarEnhancements.sublime-package on my computer to remove the line that references this IP address. I also made the file read-only so it won't get updated. Does anyone know if that will take care of the issue on my computer for now?

A new version of SideBarEnhancements is out with the stats removed. You should get automatically updated the next time you restart Sublime Text or manually upgrade the package.

They have removed the file already https://github.com/SideBarEnhancements-org/SideBarEnhancemen... but I wouldn't be surprised if they compromised more plug-ins and we just haven't found out yet
