Hi !

wtf ? the first page link to the "officiel" download is infected....

i mean, i DL the 5.9d , the ZIP totally freeses the PC, and a f*ù$în malware is detected right away !

" AndroidOS/Multiverze "

i mean.... WTF ? Huh  

and nobody talks about it Huh

allready got it like weeks ago, formatted the PC and forgot about upgrading, but the pb is still there !  Cry

Windows always detects it as a virus. But as long as you download it from the first page it's safe. If you are having issues I think there might be other issues other than the miner

i know windows defender freaks out with miners, no problem about that.

this (test)  rig was freshly formatted, nothing downloaded yet, i get PM 5.9d and it freaks out, so we can ignore external factor i guess...

legit miner always get flagged as a miner of some sort, not as a trojan with a totally different name/usage , afaik..

so can just someone maybe just check the files ? or confirm the legit files are supposed to bet detected as this...  Sad

In fact you can check them yourself with the given checksum file/hash instead of asking someone else to do it for you if you are so freaking out about it.
