 * Dear Miguras,
 * I did buy your plugin and , hands down, a very good results.
    However since I
   installed it, my hosting provider report a malware. I’m sure is a false positive
   because my Anti-Malvare protection (Malcare) does not detect it, and on top of
   that i downloaded the supposed infected file and scanned it with avast and same
   result, no malware. I decided to try uploading the file to Virustotal and only
   Clamav report a malware (Clamav is the virus engine for linux hosting as you 
   probably know). For this I’m sure is a false positive. I have to add that I use
   Autoptimize and I tried to de-activated it but no success….when I deactivate 
   Divi section Enhancer the problem goes away…. Can you take a look?
 * looking forward to hear from you.

 * Hello [@bangelo123](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bangelo123/) I’m totally
   sure it’s a false positive, because all libraries included on my plugin are safe
   and obviously i didn’t add any weird code. Also, after i read this, i uploaded
   the file to virustotal, as you did it, and i got 0/56. so i can’t tell you why
   you got that false positive. I read your support thread on autoptimize, and as
   the author tolds you, it is most likely to be a false positive.Also, as he told
   you, the js file generated by his plugin is a combination of your site’s original
   JS files, so if malware is detected in his file, also should detect the malware
   in the original file. Not the case, right? So it’s 99.9% for sure it’s a false
   positive.
