1  Bitcoin / Armory / Blockchain Virus on: February 04, 2014, 06:01:02 PM
I've downloaded bitcoin-qt and Armory from their official sites on different computers.  Every time, within a day of having the blockchain downloaded and databases built, I suddenly have a swarm of several different trojans attached to the block chain files.  Is there a security weakness in armory or qt that is allowing them in or is it something in the download file.  I'm becoming concerned because I am now having to run constant virus scans on my computers and the only consistant factor is they're attaching to the database files.  When I uninstall (totally) armory, the problem goes away after a boot level virus scan.  Stays away for a few days.  Then I try to reinstall armory and suddenly I've got virus' again.

Please check the available download file to ensure that it is not corrupted, and if you are not responsible for the blockchain, maybe there may be a way to add a scan while the blockchain is imported in casee the virus is attached to that?
