About the apperance a html:script-inf who bloqued the access to the site https://focusmsn.pt, the avast specialists told me this:
Hello Joaquim,
Thank you for contacting Avast with your concerns. Please accept our sincere apologies for the late response.
Our virus specialists have been working on this problem and it has been resolved. The provided website isn't detected by Avast anymore. According to my information, this detection might appear again as there is potentially malicious JS code on your website. We recommend removing it to avoid this in the future - focusmsn[.]pt/wp-content/plugins/gp-premium/menu-plus/functions/js/sticky.min.js
We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to contact me again.

Tell me if i need to delete this file as avast recommend. Thanks.
Hi there,
the sticky.min.js, like all our code is checked for vulnerabilities. That script is used for the Sticky Navigation. It has no means of user input, and doesn't expose the site to any cross-site scripting. So i don't know why Avast have flagged it as a security risk. Did they provide any info on 'potentially malicious' JS code ?
I reply to AVAST what you said must wait for the answer.
Thanks David
Let us know.
But i can't see there being any issues with the script as we check all our code for security :)
