Bitdefender false positive

Every time I load a page for WP Ninja's Community, Bitdefender is flagging it as a threat.

That's our web-socket URL for real time messaging. So it's a false positive and you should add that as an exception.

Shahjahan JewelΒ Thanks for the response!

I'm happy to add it as an exception and didn't think that there was nefarious things going on here.

I wanted you to know about it because other people might think it's a problem, especially people who are using other communities. I'm wondering if there's something you can do to interface with Bitdefender to let them know it's a necessary function and not a threat?
