Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Deep Malware Cleaner
No. The scanner runs only when you click Start Scan in the admin. It does not hook into page loads or run any background cron jobs. Visitor-facing performance is completely unaffected.
The scanner reads PHP files with extensions .php, .php3, .php4, .php5, .php7, .phtml, and .phar inside your wp-content directory. It skips files larger than 512 KB and enforces a 25-second time budget and a 500-file cap per run to protect shared-hosting environments.
Legitimate image, video, and document uploads are never .php files. If the scanner finds any PHP file inside wp-content/uploads/, it is almost certainly a backdoor uploaded through a vulnerable plugin or theme — a High severity threat that should be removed immediately.
Yes — the malware auto-purge feature lets you delete or quarantine flagged files directly from the scan results screen. Always review the file path and threat type before purging.
No. The plugin makes zero external HTTP requests. All scan results and alert history live only in your WordPress database.
Login protection limits repeated failed login attempts and helps prevent brute-force attacks against your wp-login.php endpoint — a key layer of website security that works alongside the malware scanner.
Go to Malware Cleaner → Scan Results and click the file path to view the matched pattern. The troubleshoot view shows the exact line and rule that triggered the alert, so you can decide whether it is a false positive or a real threat.
Go to Malware Cleaner → Settings, enable Remove all data on uninstall, then deactivate and delete the plugin. All database tables, scan history, and plugin options will be removed automatically.
The scanner caps each run at 500 files and 25 seconds to be safe on resource-constrained servers. If your wp-content directory is very large, only the first 500 PHP files encountered will be inspected per run. Future versions will support paginated / batch scanning.
