The file you uploaded, mailchimp-for-wp.4.8.7.zip, contains a virus so the upload was canceled: Sanesecurity.Foxhole.Zip_Js_Js.UNOFFICIAL FOUND

Please advice.
Thanks.

Hey @momozzz,

This could be a false warning. I found an old similar case at https://www.aurodigo.com/false-positive-sanesecurity-foxhole-cpanel-hosting-clamav.

Can you please try uploading the plugin from your WordPress website’s backend?

Hi Harish,
Thanks for the info.
After checked, it was caused of the double “.js.js” file name in
“\mailchimp-for-wp\assets\js\third-party\placeholders.js.js”

After renamed the it to “placeholders.js” there is no warning after all.
