Can you tell me the exact version you're using.  There have actually been several versions of 0.9.x released.  
I use a 0.8.x version, a variant of this version. Only minor changes for pool features.

Above is another PM I'll share.  This one was from mmpool.  

On the surface Cex.io ceasing mining sounds bad, but it may be a blessing in disguise.   mmpool is a much smaller pool but it will still maintain iXcoin's hash rate higher than 95% of the other altcoins.  So no problem with security.

More importantly, mmpool mines using version 0.8.x.  When Cex.io shuts down we should FINALLY be able to get the mining upgraded and off the ancient version 0.3.24 client!!!  F2Pool, Cryptsy and Cex.io were literally holding up this upgrade for years.  This could be a huge move forward, because new functionality can be added with newer mining clients that are impossible with the older client.
