Be careful of web based programs. Many have been created as malware.

There is no reason to trust anything financial on the web. If the website did not offer the open source script for you to check, then you put yourself at risk even by clicking on it.

I'm not really sure browser mining is work well, never try pandacoin, but I have tried browser mining to btc from bitcoinplus, and my coin never increase even 1 satoshi.
Try by yourself and you will know.

I opened your link, can't find anything about guides, maybe browser miner hasn't added yet, at least, we need to connect to pool before start mining.

do you have any idea how it works? i checked both my cpu and gpu activities, but there were nothing unusual. or anything more than it should be.
i think maybe its a wrong section for my post, maybe i should post it in "Technical Support" or "Development & Technical Discussion" cause i want to know its mechanics for my curousity, thats all

Well, with Cloud mining, you monitor the mining being done on your behalf, based on how much processing power you have bought. 

Try the service in signature  {GAW}

Enjoy

Some of them uses WebCL or Java to use your CPU/GPU to mine. They aren't usually as fast as normal desktop miner (CGMINER, BFGMINER). There are some scam sites like bitcoinplus which uses your processing power but don't allow you to withdraw some just install malware on your computer.

The Panadacoin Browser Miner http://pandacoinpnd.org/pandacoin-browser-miner/  uses low percentage of CPU cycles to mine PND (Panda Coin) afaik it is harmless. It mines a multipool at a slow trickle but you can boost it by using the Find Max Speed button and then you will see all your CPU cores get very busy but with PND at BTC 0.00000011 you will burn a lot more in electricity.  On the normal Mine option it uses  <25% of CPU across all cores on my I-5 2500K that equates to 0.681 kilohashes on Find Max Speed it uses 100% of CPU across all cores at 1.35 kilohashes.  If PND ever takes off then having got a few easy ones here will not be a bad thing but it's more for fun than anything else.  If you have anymore technical questions at least one the dev team are almost always available on IRC #PandacoinPND at freenode.net.

It is perfectly safe to use (as I have used it myself and received payouts). It uses your CPU to mine albeit quite inefficient but it's a really easy way to get someone started on mining pandacoin.

EDIT: If you have any questions you can ask it directly to the dev and the community over at the IRC #pandacoinPND at irc.freenode.com or use web interface to access it thru this link http://t.co/O2U6itq9Jo
