It would surely use more than 70% of your CPU's power and graphic cards power because the virus is taking your computer's resources for themselves this kind of problem is a common issue regarding what does the virus does to your computer, and surely prevention is better than cure but what if it bypasses that prevention most of us are talking about, I think this kind of Virus can be removed by Malwarebytes, you can surely double-check it just to be sure and you can even reset your browser in a default settings as well.

Yeap. Mining is pretty much easily noticeable probably besides rare cases when the hacker uses only like 10% which is unlikely I think. As for such viruses being easily removed through software like Malwarebytes, sure it can. But I'm more of a reinstall-the-OS-instead guy, just to be completely sure. Tongue

Also dudes and dudettes, Linux!

Yes! that is also a pretty sure thing to really do, to simply be just in the safe side of things, Maybe formatting and reinstalling all programs and algorithm that will be needed in the mining process, and just like Pooya87 have said

Always thing first that prevention is better, and be careful in using it again in the same way you did back then.
