Unfortunately that is an issue with 99% of all crypto wallets and is unavoidable to the best of my knowladge. Sorry.

I wonder if we could remove the miner software in the next release see if this helps.

Ok, thanks for the reply. Solves the problem installing the Linux version of the wallet.

That would probably help. If it’s flagging the mining software in it, then taking it out might just put an end to those problems. I just got Norton today, and I’ve already noticed that it’s flagged a mining program on my laptop. I think that one was Bitcoin related however. I don’t plan on using that for mining, since it’s my newer everyday one, but it’d be nice if the flagging could be stopped.

Agreed :).

lets go POS and dump mining code
-
The pos code would also raise the virus flag as its very similar to mining.

He’s right. PoS IS mining. It uses the exact same code in fact to find the nonce. The difference is that it also requires coins, so difficulty can be kept incredibly low so CPUs can do it trivially WHEN coins are available to do so. Difficulty then adjusts based upon the number of coins mining, NOT the amount of hardware mining.

Yeah “TR / BitcoinMiner virus” says it all. Its detected as MALWARE. Mostly because of apps like uTorrent bundling miners with thier apps we havent been able to get off of the malware list on the antivirus pages.Same for bitcoin, yada yada currency… Surely the legitimate software is harmless.
