Hi,
I have installed rkhunter and have a cron setup and each day I get an email that says:
Please inspect this machine, because it can be infected
If I run rkhunter via root I get this at the end and everything else checks out ok:

Is there something I can remove that will get rid of this warning error?
=================================
If I set the warning email to my personal email in the rkhunter.conf file:
MAIL-ON-WARNING=info@designhosting.biz
and run ./rkhunter from root or cron it sends an email to
info@designhosting.biz from "msneedle@godslove.designhosting.biz" which msneedlepenny.com is a new domain on my server just added a few days ago. Why is it doing this?
=================================
Also, I just updated rkhunter from atomic and ran it again and get this at the end:
