False positive: metehanreset.com flagged as Botnet C&C / Malware


Recommended Posts

Hello,

My domain metehanreset.com is being flagged as “Botnet C&C / Malware” by some reputation services, but this is a false positive.

metehanreset.com is my own small commercial website for printer maintenance tools and blog guides (WordPress + WooCommerce). There is no malware hosted or distributed from this site.

Recent scans show:
- 0 malware detections
- Only normal WordPress assets (HTML, CSS, images, fonts, theme files)

I also scanned the hosting account and WordPress installation (core, themes, plugins) and did not find any injected or malicious code.

Please review this domain and remove the malicious / Botnet C&C classification if possible, as it negatively affects my brand and customers’ trust.

Thank you.

Thank you for the detailed feedback.

Our downloadable Windows tool is also EV code-signed, so if an older unsigned build was involved in the initial detection, it has now been replaced with the clean, signed version.

I rescanned the site and the current homepage HTML (SHA-256: 8bc821aca2333a7f3687b2c97aa43cfe63606208570e4e58a4ace734e8ec1f6a) shows 0/61 detections.

Could Kaspersky Virus Lab please re-analyse the current version of https://metehanreset.com/
 and update the classification if it is now clean? This is a small commercial site for printer maintenance tools and the “Botnet C&C / malware” label is seriously affecting my business.

Thank you in advance.
