Lots of Potential Threats in plugins folder

    Is it fairly common to have a lot of “potential threats” coming from the plugins folder? I have several legitimate plugins that I use on several webpages that all come up as a potential threats on scan. Could this be because of the heavy use of php and js files associated with plugins? My OCD wants it to be completely empty but if it’s a normal thing I can get over it. 🙂 thanks

    If you have registered my plugin and downloaded the latest Definition Update then I wouldn’t worry about those Potential Threats. I am working on a new release that will make it easier to white-list those legit plugins that use suspicious code (like the use of “eval”). As long there are no more Known Threat (in red) then your site is probably clean.

    Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

    Aloha, Eli
