Are you sure you downloaded it correctly? I know many people who downloaded and continue to use the ENB mod with no such issues.
How exactly did you download it? Also, a virus wouldn't completely wipe out a game folder, so I wouldn't worry there.

I pasted it in the game folder I changed my render system to Direct3D and restarted later it wiped out everything the game crashed what happened?
It also removed my tearless texture feline and the markings look different
I downloaded it like this
I clicked the link pasted those files in the folder then changed my render system to DIrect3D I restarted the game and thought it would not crash but it did

The ENB files, at least the ones altered by Red, are definitely not a virus. I've had it for quite some time now and my computer and game are fine. What I would suggest doing is a clean reinstall of FH and then if you still wish to install the ENB, place it back in the FH folder. Sometimes anti virus programs will flag it and not allow you to move it over to the FH folder. However, if you go into your anti virus program when it notifies you that the file may be malicious, you can hit "Allow this instance" and then it will allow you to move it over to the folder once more.

Sounds like your antivirus isn't liking it. A lot of them will give false positives like that, so you should probably disable it and give that a try?

Do you perhaps by any chance have Norton? I went through the same thing but was successfully able to bypass it. I could post a little screenshot or two on how I did it if you would like?

Norton, Windows Defender, and other anti-virus programs automatically assume that programs with no publisher/an unknown publisher that attempt to alter other files are a virus, and will remove that file, as well as all the alteration attempts. Which is actually really dumb. And causes these issues.

For Norton/other anti-virus, disable while you are installing.
If it is Windows Defender that is causing the issue, you will have to tell it to "allow" the "virus." And it will probably scream at you for doing it. It's fine.
WD tried to tell me my own installer that I was currently making was a virus. It's just really not a smart program. A lot of anti-virus isn't.

Click on the small arrow, it looks like a triangle near the bottom right, and then right click on Norton Antivirus icon. Then it will say disable smart firewall if you want to shut it down. If not then click Disable Antivirus Auto-Protect so it can disable the protection and you can change the time to how long you want it disabled.
