Antivirus false positives

FW: 6.9.1 with XRAID utilizing 7 - 4TB drives in a RAID6 array.
I installed the RN628X last week, it is my first time using a Netgear NAS. I am getting hits on 4 files that pass Malwarebytes, Norton and McAfee scans. As they are old archived files that are not relevant anymore, I deleted them rather than take a chance. I will submit the file copies and see what happens.
We've just had 93 hits in the space of 56 minutes and this is happening most days now. All of the files are old archive files which have not been used or changed in 6 months or more so I'm not sure how they could suddenly contain a virus or have become corrupted, or in fact, why the NAS AV is suddenly picking these up.
Very annoying none-the-less and compounded by the fact that Netgear/Clam seem to not be bothered about it.
