 * Hi,
    I just uploaded my wordpress files to my domainhost, but I’m having some
   problems.
 * The following files are being refused by the ftp server.
 *     ```
       /wp-admin/js/customize-controls.js
       /wp-admin/js/customize-controls.min.js
       /wp-includes/js/customize-base.js
       /wp-includes/js/customize-base.min.js
       /wp-includes/js/customize-preview.js
       /wp-includes/js/customize-preview-min.js
       ```
   
 * The error message I’m getting is
 *     ```
       Response:	550-Virus Detected and Removed: MBL_241722.UNOFFICIAL FOUND
       Response:	550 customize-controls.js: Operation not permitted
       Error:	File transfer failed
       ```
   
 * I looked at the Malware Patrol website and searched for the MLB# and came up 
   with the following virus definition “Hoax.Win32.ArchSMS.hsgx”.
 * This is a complete fresh install, no plugins or anything and I downloaded wordpress
   3.8 from wordpress.org (this site).
    I’m on Mac OS X 10.8 and use FileZilla as
   ftp client.
 * Is this a false positive?
 * Thanks in advance
