This is from a write up on HHTD I found.

The complete article is here

"This addon looks through your combat log to see who’s casting healing 
spells around you; if it detects that a player has cast a healing spell, 
it puts a big red cross over their nameplate."

The big issue I see with the mod is it automatically puts up the red 
cross if they use a healing spell.
