    After scanning with wordfencce and get this WARNING:

    This file belongs to plugin “MailPoet Newsletters” version “2.6.16” and has been modified from the file that is distributed by www.ads-software.com for this version. Please use the link to see how the file has changed. If you have modified this file yourself, you can safely ignore this warning. If you see a lot of changed files in a plugin that have been made by the author, then try uninstalling and reinstalling the plugin to force an upgrade. Doing this is a workaround for plugin authors who don’t manage their code correctly

    Is it mallware?

  • Yes, that’s a Malware! Please deactivate and delete your MailPoet (you won’t lose any data, it’s all on the database) and then install MailPoet again from the Plugins menu.

    Also, open your FTP and go to your wp-content/plugins folder and delete the folder “temps”. That is where the rest of the malware resides.
