 * In the options, I selected the plugin to scan themes and plugins.
 * I am getting the following warning about several plugin files:
 * “This file belongs to plugin “Wordfence Security” version “3.6.5” and has been
   modified from the file that is distributed by WordPress.org for this version.”
 * Do I simply click “ignore” or should I select “restore the original file”?

 * Restore and then run the scan again.
