Hi Eli , firstly, thanks for a great plugin. I am having a new site built and will install and donate as soon as complete in a few weeks time.
My question is for my current site. I have Shield Security and the scanner has picked up 4 potential malware infections but Gotmls says my site is clean. This is what Shield shows:

Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you,

November 20, 2019 at 6:14 pm #2383I don’t know much about that Shield Security plugin, and I cannot say for sure if any of these are real threats or just false positives, but it looks to me like these files have been flagged by that other plugin for string matches that could could easily have reasonable explanations and benign uses.
If you would like to email these files directly to me then I would be willing to confirm for you that they are clean.
November 21, 2019 at 12:36 am #2384Thanks Eli, will email them over tonight.
November 22, 2019 at 11:39 am #2385Hi Eli,
Just checking to see if you received my email okay? I replied from an old email that I received from you in Feb 2018.
Thank you.
November 23, 2019 at 12:02 am #2386Thanks for the follow-up and for sending me those files to look at
I verified that none of those files contain any malicious code and specifically that all the code in the failes that were found by that other plugin are False Positives.
