I'm new to crypto and to PandaCoin but for some reason I had a good feeling about this coin so I bought some.
But..... I installed the Pandabank on my computer and the installation came with a virus and this makes me unhappy and a little worried.
Don't know what to think of this. The virus was Heur.AdvML.B.
Below is the information from Norton.
"Heur.AdvML.B is a heuristic detection designed to generically detect malicious files using advanced machine learning technology."

Some Anti Virus will report coin software because there is malware that mines coins in the background hidden from the user. Pandabank doesn't do that. It however uses Proof of Stake to generate blocks and send the rewards to your wallet. That might rise an alarm in your Anti Virus.
Pandabank is open source and anyone can look inside the source to see that there's no malware or unwanted behaviour.
