This type of virus typically infiltrates a device through a malicious website that can enter the computer when clicking a link or downloading a file.

It's a false positive - OpenCharacters is just a html file. You can't put a virus in a HTML file - if you could, then simply clicking on a link / visiting a website could give you a virus. The only thing that this HTML file can "download" is the IndexedDB dump / thread export JSON files, and they're completely harmless (they're data files, not executable).
