When I uploaded the Windows-Qt zip to Virus Total I got 0/50. Can someone please confirm? Some posted a 23/50 earlier...

I ran minerd through Virus Total and I got 24/49.  I'm not sure if that's just minerd setting off alarm bells everywhere it goes though.


Please don't run it.. its a virus for sure, they're trying to capitalise off the name:

I'm the @stacycoin original dev.. Please help me and report this thread to admins.. Its 03:43 AM here and I need to sleep Sad

While I don't dispute the fact that they're not the true StacyCoin devs, I don't think their version of the miner is a virus only because I ran Quark's 64bit version of minerd through Virus Total and got almost the same results.  Having said that, I'm taking steps to make sure I don't get burned just in case.
