ClamWin uses the malware signatues maintained by Clam Antivirus. You can upload a copy of files with false positives to Clam AV at https://cgi.clamav.net/sendvirus.cgi on the Web and explain that it is a false positive. This is a PUA (potentially unwanted file), however, and I haven't had much luck with getting the PUAs removed from the Clam signature database. PUAs do not necessarily contain viruses/malware--they are potential hacker tools/processes that act as a heuristic in detecting suspicious files.
Best thing to do is to uncheck the PUA option in Clamwin's Advanced Preferences. Regards, |

I think in this case clamwin is doing exactly what you asked it to do - detecting Potentially Unwanted Applications (VBScript files with filesystemobject). You can either exclude your webiste folders in exclusion filters or better yet leave the setting "Detect Potentially Unwanted Applications" off (as it is by default after installation) |
