[ANN][SLG] Sterlingcoin v1.7 | United Kingdom |

[kcanup]

I see we've mined just over 3M coins so far

How long till PoW finishes, end of the year?

Still one month and a bit more left to end pow i think with 2 mins block time
Just my rough calculation without calculator bro

It should be a happy new year when PoW ends, there will nothing to hold the price down then

OK boys and girls

I have been hard at it since 10am till 2pm working on the styling of the wallet. Fixing small legibility issues with coin control, address book and adding full styling to the transaction page.

Here are some screenshots:






I'll now strip out the Twitter Feed, Trade Dialog and Buy SLG from this updated version to create the new 1.4 Lite Edition.

I am also going to revamp the icons a little. Just colouration to make them more visible/legible.

Whilst Sterlingcoin 1.4 sits in the wings waiting to be released I thought I would write a quick short guide to running a more secure wallet on your Windows home computer:

1. Download and install Comodo Firewall, Peerblock and Avira Antivirus.
2. Download and install Oracle VirtualBox.
3. Check whether you are running 32bit or 64bit Windows and then download either the 32bit or 64bit version of Ubuntu 14.10
4. Open Oracle VirtualBox and create a new virtual machine for Ubuntu/Linux and select the appropriate architecture (32bit/64bit).
5. Ideally you should be creating this virtual machine on an external usb drive which can stay disconnected whenever possible.
6. During install make sure to set passwords for startup of the Ubuntu install and also for login to the Ubuntu environment on the Virtual Machine.
7. Once Ubuntu has finished installing and you are on the desktop, open a terminal (Crtl+Alt+T) and type "sudo apt-get update" and hit enter, it will request your password you set at install.
8. Next, still in the terminal, type "sudo apt-get upgrade" and hit enter, this time it will not require your password as you entered it previously and are still in the same session.
9. Once the updates finish installing go to the menu bar of Oracle Virtual Box which your Ubuntu installation is running in and go to 'Devices' and at the bottom click on 'Insert Guest Additions CD Image'. Ubuntu will pick up the installer and ask whether you wish to run the installer, click 'Run', it will request your password. Once it finishes restart Ubuntu.
10. Once Ubuntu restarts follow this guide here - http://sterlingcoin.org.uk/support/linux/install-sterlingcoin-wallet-linux/

This I hope will help those that don't have a huge technical know how to at least secure their systems somewhat better than they may be now.

any recommendations for mac users?  

MacOS is based upon the UNIX operating system which is a good strong basis to work off of.
With Macintosh there is a general consensus that they do not get virus' or malware, which sadly is not the case.

When running OSX we recommend ClamAV for antivirus and Comodo Firewall alongside Peerguardian:

http://www.clamxav.com/downloads/ClamXav_2.6.4.dmg
https://www.comodo.com/home/internet-security/antivirus-for-mac.php
https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/15098/peerguardian/download

Also for added security, the same as the Windows guide, install VirtualBox, Ubuntu and the Linux wallet on an external drive and keep disconnected whenever possible.

We hope this helps the Mac users out there in the community.

Good work as always . must buy more before the price explodes or I will probably regret it
