Windows wallet re-built and uploaded again

Wallet Version is now V2.3

Linux & Mac wallets will also get rebuilt again.

this is NOT an issue ...

the majority of the 'newer' wallets developed in visual studio show a false positive due the components of visual studio that gets implemented / compiled into the wallet ...

in fact - some of the components of mingw - when the wallets have been cross compiled from linux - also show a pup signature ...

the virus programs are designed that way - heuristics in ALL viral scanners work that way ...

if there is ANY issue at all - it is with the virus software NOT updating the whitelists ...

you dont get this issue in linux ...

everyone needs to understand that the paranoia that windows users have are a result of the lack of security in the windows os ... with these wallets - you will find that not all scanners see this as a pup ... that is enough evidence to prove that the reliability of such applications to verify whether a wallet is virus ridden or not - is questionable ...

the bottom line is simple ... if you are in doubt - dont use it ... there are other ways of getting wallets to store coins - like using a trusted service ... but even then - the issue on that side of the fence is not the trustworthiness of the wallet - but the reliability of the service being provided ... so where can you win in this situation? ...

if the development of the windows wallet BY windows software is showing a pup signature - then isnt it microsofts responsibility to fix the issue? ... or they making too much money to worry about stuff like that? ...

the code is not the issue here ... tried scanning dash or litecoin or even bitcoin wallets compiled in the same visual studio software? ... you will be very surprised what the viral scanning software comes up with those also ... false positives more often than not ..

Nor have I ever heard of Rising Antivirus 

Yes i think it's a false positive too but we will still check it out regardless.

We have this info from Mcafee for it

This software is not a virus or a Trojan. It is detected as a "potentially unwanted program" (PUP). PUPs are any piece of software that a reasonably security- or privacy-minded computer user may want to be informed of and, in some cases, remove. PUPs are often made by a legitimate corporate entity for some beneficial purpose, but they alter the security state of the computer on which they are installed, or the privacy posture of the user of the system, such that most users will want to be aware of them.


Thanks for noticing it.

I will contact Fraz right away, and other experts too.

Virustotal shows a possible infection in the new wallet:
https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/6f9a144113118536007ac4bd19bd064696abd5d8146c55539b35b8bf0ec99e15/analysis/1450465739/

Just 1 out of 54 antiviruses reports "PE:Malware.RDM.17!5.17 [F]" virus. Never heard of this antivirus called "Rising".

99.9% possibility this is a false positive. Similar situation was on the HXX coin wallet before, and proved to be false positive: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/hxx-swap-hexxcoin-cpu-anonymous-zerocoin-c-cex-yobit-cryptopia-1171724

But it would be nice if the devs could look into it and find what cases this issue, and fix it if possible. This could give a peace of mind to the people who like things to be perfect

I hope that this is the Happy Xmas Takeover  !

I will see what the guys say about i2p and if it can be implemented in the coming year, as we see previous takeover dev did suggest it.

Mac & Linux wallets added to OP any issue's PM us and we'll get it sorted. apart from that Enjoy

The new windows wallet looks much better than the old one, with improved features too 

Fair coin, everybody has a chance

I like the Anti_Instamine concept while keeping my fingers crossed

Please be polite on this thread.

This has been done before on numerous occasions and hasn't worked. Why not spend your time coding something in Bitshares/Nxt/Ether and help us move 2.0 coins forward not this shit.

oh I wish I had BTC to grab it up. Its a pity that I lost money on other coins.
