    My sites are detected as virus

    Some of my visitors have told me that their anti-virus software detect viruses in my websites http://blog.alejandro-ace-translator.co.cc, http://thefirered.x10hosting.com, etc. They are all clean Wordpress installations from Softaculus. Also they had the Akismet plugin activated. I hope it's not a problem because of the co.cc domain.

    Looking forward for you response,

    TheFireRed.

    Hello.

    Unfortunately, it is very likely to be a problem with CO.CC. Many services blacklisted that domain because of the number of spam and malicious sites created with it.

    Since you said your x10hosting.com subdomain gets an alert too, it might also be the server IP due to the unfortunate inevitable fact that there are people out there abusing free hosting. There are always people abusing the service and even though we stop abuse very quickly, it's still going to be live for a bit and security services might detect it.

    What anti-virus company is reporting this? It would be a good idea to contact these companies about false positives.

    Re: My sites are detected as virus

    They said it was NOD32. I have avast! Antivirus but it says nothing. However, I do get some strange navigation, like getting 404 after posting and getting a strange command "?eeee1540" after my site's direction (e.g. http://blog.mysite.com/wp-admin/opti...r.php?eeee1540).

    So, how can this be fixed? Do I have to cancel my co.cc domain or you may scan for viruses or something like that?

    Regards,
    TheFireRed.
