 * Emre, FYI; [I have users reporting the same issue](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/malware-warning-on-web-host?replies=12).
   There’s info on what I was able to find out in that thread already.
 * Either this simply is a false positive or we (WPFC & AO and probably others) 
   are both aggregating CSS that is infected (and as such are hiding the problem).
   Let’s keep in touch to identify the culprit (clam av for a false positive or 
   a plugin with infected CSS).

 * Frank, I have talked to [@feroz_bilal](https://wordpress.org/support/users/feroz_bilal/)
   via email and he is convinced that this is a mistake of hosting provider 🙂
 * There is no file which is infected. and I cannot stop thinking about this question:
   Why does a hacker need to update a css file? 😀

 * > he is convinced that this is a mistake of hosting provider
 * This indeed is very likely to be a false positive by Clam AV. The question is
   what triggered this false positives all of a sudden. Also; this will likely happen
   again, so …
