There is a (new?) trojan wallet stealer out in the wild ATM.

Plenty of script kiddies and scammers are going to be trying to get you to download and install it, what's more they'll be putting posts to do so (using lies obviously).

Don't install anything linked to on this forum, unless it's been found by someone with a good reputation to be legit. Assume everything is an attempt to steal your wallet.

You should also encrypt your wallet when not in use.

You have been warned.

Encrypting your wallet when not in use is no protection as you have to decrypt to use it. Trojans lie in wait until an unencrypted wallet.dat is found, and some also have keyloggers to steal your password. I have been preaching bitcoin hardware wallets for a year now to encourage using Trezor or Ledger to move private keys off your laptop or phone. Once you have your bitcoin stolen you will become a believer.
