I remember checking out this coin and I did a virustotal scan which resulted in two very common false positives, you can see the same results in this quote from the zombiecoin OP:

VirusTotal
Windows wallet is false positive by 2 third rate virusscanner.

Some time ago I saw this post in the zombiecoin thread, it's still there while I'm writing this.

Why did you removed my post? I'm not lying, the program is detected as a virus on my computer (with AVG)

After reading this I downloaded the wallet again from the OP and here are the virustotal results for that one:

This looks like exactly the same what happened with candlecoin, which was also a coin with avatar campaign:

I guess this is the reason why the Developer is not opening his account

so can we officially call its death of this coin?

Definitely if we installed and run those wallets our computer will become a zombie of that zombiecoin maybe this is really the coins purpose and goal to make all their wallet holder's computer a zombie of the zombiecoin..

The price itself has doing a good freefall job into the deepest abyss, I think even if it's not already dead by now, it will be soon.

As the title said, the main purpose of this altcoin is probably only for spreading virus, though I still don't get why the effort of signing it up into yobit if it really tries to force as many people as it can to download its desktop wallet. Anyway, I think the stopped mining activity just means that the death of this coin is really near.

The two topics about ZMC are blocked, including the signature campaign, so i think DEV found a way to stop people questionings, and with a volume of 68$ in the last 24 hours, i think the death is almost here.
