Does anyone know what possible filename this infection may come under? Or anything that can help me locate the infection if it is still in the system? Or at least to figure out if I indeed had this trojan.



Allinvain - I'm looking up that information as we speak. I'll post more shortly.

Renting a server costs only few $ a year
Even if the storage is ridiculous, it's far enough to store a encrypted wallet.dat...
I think it's worth it

I contacted the service - basically, they offer 2 things:

1.) wallet.dat back up via upload - 100 percent coverage for your BTC if anything should go wrong on their end.
2.) wallet.dat no upload - 100 percent coverage for your BTC wallet.

So either way you are covered for the coins you have. Finding out more Grin

Looks like Symantec just released the culprit who steals bitcoins from wallets  Angry

Source: Symantec http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2011-061615-3651-99&tabid=2

So I started looking around for anything to help protect BitCoins (besides encrypting).

Clearly this guy was the one that stole the coins? : http://twitter.com/#!/Anonakomis

Thanks Grue for that.

So when I look at this block http://blockexplorer.com/address/1GtkcbznYop1AeQ9mEqmEgm6BYeWgbYGUp    I see ledger and Balance of 215.26429068 - so I'm assuming if I send to this payment address 1 BTC it is now 216.26429068   when I check back ?

"@Allinvain - I hope this gets tracked down and you get some solid answer from commuity leaders"

I had a noob question can BTC still be sent to the wallet that was stolen ? maybe you can trace it that way ?

their wallet is stolen , erased or removed does the transaction tell me so ?

Thanks! Grin
Nope. The transaction will go through like any other. If the wallet was lost, the coins will never be able to be claimed.

Wow, BTC lost forever hey ? the bitcoin grave Sad

Hey man!

I'm unsure at which point it was stolen, but all transactions are tracked in the block count. Do you know his BT address? You can use BlockExplorer.com i.e. http://blockexplorer.com/address/1GtkcbznYop1AeQ9mEqmEgm6BYeWgbYGUp

this was hypothetical thank god! Smiley thanks for replying!

[bump]

I guess this is the only answer?
2915  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I see my Bitcoin Balance or someone .. on: June 14, 2011, 05:24:05 AM
I don't believe it can be done. Unless you has access to their wallet.dat


ohhh ....obviously, that won't happen..
2916  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How can I see my Bitcoin Balance or someone .. on: June 14, 2011, 05:23:41 AM
Good question, I'm wondering the same thing.

Thanks I don't feel like such a noob! Grin

btw: nice service if its yours http://bitcoinvert.com/   been looking for something like this!
2917  Other / Beginners & Help / How can I see my Bitcoin Balance or someone .. on: June 14, 2011, 05:10:18 AM
else's ?  I know you can see your own balance in the client itself ...

I've heard of blockexplorer   but don't know how to read it - is it possibly to put someones payment address and see how many bitcoins they have?

Thanks!

A bounty is simply an offer to pay someone to solve a problem the offerer wants solved.
