I think it is similar to a pool, but its dedicated mier runs off the webpage.

I don't think it is legit. I have been a member/miner on that site for a long, long time and finally tried to get out some of my earnings. The send failed and the site owner "donny@bitcoinplus.com" has refused to respond to email requests for assistance. I have tried to contact him for about a month now. Nothing. My account shows the debit of $0.12 plus his transfer fee of $0.01 but the transaction has not yet completed. He states that the $0.01 fee is for the network, to ensure that the transfer is processed but apparently that is not true.

If anyone knows of another way to contact him, it would be appreciated.

Thank you.

It's safe to use but you'll need months of mining in there just to get 0,01 payment.
Better option is using a real cpu miner + LTC or BTC pool...

It really doesn't look legit.
First try other options before looking at a browser based miner.

Seeing how this isn't legit, I'd love to see an embeddable(into a webpage) Java miner that works with existing pools, to act in the same manner as the embeddable miner offered at bitcoinplus.

A miner that runs in your browser won't be very effective; so I guess it's not worth it to developt it.

I have done some web searching and think that donny@bitcoinplus.com is this person "Donny Nadolny". I found his name at this site: http://chooseplugin.com/plugin-info/bitcoin-plus-miner/. Does anyone know other ways to contact him?

The real question is: Do you really want to waste your time spending days upon days mining for a fraction of a bit-cent?
