It is normal when a miner package triggers AntiVirus software.

It is dangerous when a miner package comes through without any flags. What this usually means is the Virus creator is trying to get you run the script at least once.

Be suspicious always. Pheonix miner does not seem to have any "official" activity going on since 6.2c.

FYI for miners out there: As expected, there will be a flag with AV. Win 10 64bit pro

Mine is:

Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml

D'oh! I did not think about that. Good point.

Cheers,

Trust and veracity is what is important when big things happen that require a new download (the actual download and extract and use) and to not be suspicious is would be unnatural. Especially since we are talking monetary value - and the ease at which dev's can slip a piece of code to mine small bits is a reality unfortunately, and the average miners understanding of coding is probably on par with the layman.

So, when new versions of everything are flying around, everyone will be more cautious if the source is not well established and in long term use. I asked a question when the pheonixminer thread was updated, but was still suspicious of it even though the poster replied right after. But pheonixminer having its own history, was also a big red flag.

@sp_ how can we trust? Does this unlocker have a fee for use?

Edit: browsing at your TBM. Any plans to implement Eth+Ton dual mining?

Cheers,

Thanks man. I suspected as much. Downloaded and scanned but no flags? Sus... deleted!

Hello,

For mining ETH-Ton, is the recommended drivers for AMD still as listed on first page? (Validated support for AMD Windows drivers 22.4.2) I see, from beta 6.3b release post, (Validated support for the latest AMD Windows drivers up to 21.11.2). I have 21.11.3 installed. Will this driver be ok? Or should I upgrade to 22.4.2?

As for Nvidia, will 512.15 work for windows 10 64bit pro?

Cheers
