Title: malware?
Post by: horisize on May 25, 2019, 04:08:03 AM
I am moving a forum to a new host. They suspect some files are malware. Can anyone confirm this?

without seeing the actual files content we cant tell you anything.
what host are you using that is flagging these files?
also which version of SMF are you using?
