Where did you get this information from? What is the malicious code? You can find the official file x3_htaccess.php in the link below, and there is nothing malicious about it:
https://github.com/mjau-mjau/x3/blob/ma ... access.php

The file_put_contents() functions is used to write data to a file, which is necessary if X3 is going to try to write the .htaccess file automatically. It's not unusual to have "firewall" security features on server, but not really "anti-virus" ... Besides, what "virus" is this then? Where is the malicious code? Either your hosting is reacting stupid, or this file has been hacked by someone else (feel free to send a copy to me). I really can't say anything else than that ... Servers that react to false positives are not configured correctly, and I can't help that.

Sorry, almost had to read this again, it's silly. What anti-virus is this?

Glad it's solved!
