Title: Moon bitcoin - trojan? Post by: moneyfornothing on April 16, 2018, 11:17:39 AM My antivirus detects trojan, when I download moonbitcoin site, named brocoiner. Is this serious?
Title: Re: Moon bitcoin - trojan? Post by: jankeman on April 16, 2018, 11:54:24 AM I think it's due to moonbit.co.in having the bonus miner, and when you tried to download it, your antivirus detected the miner. But it's not a virus, it's a false positive

Trojan:HTML/Brocoiner is a JavaScript cryptocurrency miner that is being served on web pages. When a computer visits one of these web pages, this JavaScript malware launches locally and uses the computer’s resources to mine cryptocurrency. Such mining activities can be resource intensive and can cause visiting computers to slow down. Title: Re: Moon bitcoin - trojan?

The script probably downloads as part of the webpage, but does not launch until you tell it to.
This site is safe to use, so as a previous poster mentioned, it's a false positive. Title: Re: Moon bitcoin - trojan? Post by: monsterman on October 25, 2018, 10:51:18 AM yes it has miner sometimes coz my application detected its miner , although not for everytime
