Hi there,

It has reportet:

Malware issues

Scanned files 7430

Please, check scan results in your WP Dashboard:

What should I do?
Upon finishing the scan you will see the results in 6 different categories:

Unknown: Unknown executable files spotted in the system. These files don't come with WordPress by default. It could be anything.
Modified: Modified executable files of the system.
Suspicious: Modified executable files of the system with suspicious function names. WordPress does NOT use such functions.
Dangerous: Modified executable files of the system with dangerous functions that could harm your website.
Critical: Modified executable files of the system with very dangerous functions — 99,5%% that this is malware!
Outbound links: Shows you the list of outgoing links from your website and websites on which they are linking to.

How can I assess that?

Thank you!
Wolfgang

I have already changed the file with the download from your website but Cleantalk has not changed his mind ...
