I also find it very unusual that the OP, after my negative feedback, has never commented on that matter in any case.

  Our bad, we were probably too complacent, but we are commenting now: no malware was ever posted from our account. The recent s**tstorm was caused by NiceHash when they saw an opportunity to smear us, and steer their users to their in-house miner instead. Here is our quite long overview about this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2647654.msg56526051#msg56526051

  MEGA deleted our account but as far as we know they never tried to replace the actual legitimate files with something malicious (even NiceHash admitted so, when pressed if they were distributing a fake version of PhoenixMiner). Just to be on the safe side, we removed all (now dead) links to MEGA from our messages.

  There is constant stream of newbie account posting fake "new versions" and "hotfixes" of PhoenixMiner in our thread but certainly you can't hold us responsible for everything that is posted there?
