  The admin-ajax.php file is always causing Kaspersky Security to set of a Phishing alert when trying to edit a wordpress website with the Monstroid theme (#55555 from templatemonster.com).

  Every time I try to edit the website the Kaspersky Security goes crazy and I constantly get Phishing attacks on my laptop/pc.

  Is this a problem with the admin-ajax.php file or am I the target of a bad hacker?

  It looks like you are working with a self-hosted WordPress.org site instead of the WordPress.com-hosted version supported here.

  Learn more about the differences between WordPress.com and WordPress.org:

  I would recommend searching on the WordPress.org support forums for similar issues. If you cannot find anything that works, you can start your own thread. The forums are completely separate from each other, so you will need to register an account there if you haven’t done so already.
