nice post…
I’ve installed this one several different blogs but I have no options for setting Whitelist for it. So it is triggering every file that has a `php` … Is there an English speaking forum for it or any way I can find out where this whitelist setting is? Thanks!
its an good one,but this plugins slow up the loading of blog
I’m using this. Once I run the manual scan, it shows that everything is clear but I still have the iFrame based worm going on through my site.
Actually the idea itself is not so bad after all
