Useless

I would gladly pay for an antivirus that actually worked but I don’t like when a suposedly free plugin to check viruses says that i have 3 viruses on my wordpress that needs urgent clean up and then find out I need to pay EU100 to clean them.

I followed the path for 3 files this antivirus pointed me as “infected” and edited them with all the known editors (that i use to find viruses) and there is not a single bit of virus on them.

According to this antivirus, this text is a virus:

<?php
/**

*
*/

$l[‘delete_poll’] = “Delete Poll”;
$l[‘close_thread’] = “Close Thread”;
$l[‘stick_thread’] = “Stick Thread”;

Suffice to say it looks like a nice SCAM that gives false positives to promote you to pay for the cleanup.
