 * I have the same issue as this post [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-malware-here/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-malware-here/)
 * When I run the complete scan, I get wp-includes/js/dist/date.js AND date.min.
   js as having a “read/write error”, and my redirection malware stays persistent–
 * I have all the updates and premium access, not sure what to do.

 * Those two JS files were found to be safe in other cases but the read errors were
   caused by the memory_limit being set too low in the php.ini file on your server.
 * What malware is still persistent on your site?
 * What is your site or what URL is still infected?

 * I don’t see any redirects on your site. Are you sure it’s not just cached on 
   your side or somehow caused by your browser?
 * Can you link to any outside reference to this redirect so that I can see what
   evidence of malware that you are reacting to?

 * You dont see any redirects because after your plugin and about 4 or 5 others 
   failed to identify and/or clean the infection, I finally downloaded a plug-in
   called bulletproof security (BPS) and began deleting files (all plugins) that
   it identified as being suspicious until finally after I had deleted enough of
   them I must have killed the rogue infected one(s) because I am now clean. I am
   not sure exactly WHICH plugin it was, maybe live chat or WPOptimize.
 * However, whichever one it was, your plugin failed to detect the infected code.
   In any event, I am now clean, though.
