Fabrix, thanks for the reply. You seem certain about false positive.
My web host informed me that one of the ways malware can happen is:
Installing applications, add-ons or modules which are downloaded from third-party locations and may be infected.
The file that was identified as malware was in the modules folder.
Question:
Did you create the files in the modules folder yourself, or did you download the modules folder with files from a third-party location, or did you obtain the modules folder with files from a third-party?
