disable your antvirus while downloading, exe files are noted as malicous by antivrus and will auto delete them. I had this happen to me recently

I recently found key-loggers in both cgminer and bfgminer downloads so I wouldnt dissable your virus checker if I was you  Wink

It was in the pdcurses.dll though, not the cgminer.exe, and cgminer would still run without the dll (bfgminer does not)

Try GUIMiner and keep your virus scanner on instead.  Grin

Wow that's horrible advice.. Use Guiminer instead of cgminer because of a false positive..... guiminer SUCKS........ But I guess only having two pretty buttons is the way people want it.

cgminer is not trojan unless you downloaded from somewhere stupid.



It would be a false positive. I never said anything about disabling your anti virus...

Look Mr. "9 posts" if you'd read the cgminer thread you'd realize that the windows version does in fact give false positives for perfectly explainable reasons.  It's completely safe and you can safely add cgminer to the anti-virus whitelist since it's not a threat.

This has been covered over and over again in the cgminer thread.

You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

CGminer gets picked up as a false positive because it's used by a lot of mining botnets etc
At the end of the day, you can go grab the source code if you're really so suspicious  Roll Eyes
