I am mining sha-256 and it seems like it will mine any currency but BTC. When it switches to BTC, it will stop mining. Does anyone know why this is happening?

If you're mining through slush's stratum proxy (e.g. with ASICMiner blades or cubes), there's a known problem with p2pool (and this gets passed through Multipool) - it won't work with that proxy. Some have suggested that it's best to run with the bfgminer proxy, but I'm not sure if that gets around the p2pool problem since I can't run it more than 6-8 minutes before it declares the devices SICK and restarts them, killing my hashrate. This latter is a known problem with certain devices, wireless, and QoS - it's a tough nut to crack, and I haven't had time to troubleshoot.

I'm using bfgminer v3.4.0 with two ASIC USB miners and it does the same thing.

I updated to bfgminer 3.8.0 and it showed that there was active work (on multipool site), but then stopped again.

Interesting. I have several USB ASICMiners and a couple of USB Red Furys - neither have that stopping problem with any 3.x versions of BFGminer. I'm on 64-bit linux. But I used the USB miners via stratum directly and not through the bfgminer proxy.
