I've been mining quark using Kachur's miner ever since the algorithm was introduced to NiceHash and would like to confirm that the infected miner you folks speak of is indeed Kachur's despite the fact that I haven't experienced any symptoms of infection.

The exefile was different in the virus version.

Thanks for the quick feedback!

I've read through this entire thread and no one seems to have provided any concrete proof as to whether this miner contains malicious coding so I still remain sceptical.  

There's a quick question I would like to ask you given you've developed CCminer although it may be a little off topic. 

I've got a pair of Compute Shader 1.1 capable cards, more precisely the 9800GTX & GTS250 and have had absolutely no luck getting them to work with a variety of algorithms via CC/CudaMiner besides Scrypt which is no longer a viable option.  Upon launch, the miner will either instantly crash or provide a hashrate so low no shares are ever being submitted due to the GPU's relatively idle state.  I was wondering if you can suggest a particular build of CC/Cudaminer and or algorithm which are compatible with these cards. I was forced to ultimately resort to SGminer and managed to yield a little over 600 Kh/s w/ LYRA2REv2.

Any advice you may offer is greatly appreciated.

I have .bat files to start sgminer with different .conf files and I use cgwatcher ,,

Now cgwatcher is fine with the .bat and the .conf files I can use it to change profiles

so how is it that when I close down cgwatcher and the miner and then use explorer and d click the .bat file does sgminer find a JSON decode error in the .conf file

Anyone seen this or know why ?

cheers

For what it's worth, you can use jsonlint.com to verify your .conf file.

so these new bins have a virus ...hmmmm...posted by newbie...verified by newbie....so surprised

Here's some ACTUAL stats on what's possible with Lyra2REv2. Don't worry, my screenshot won't try and run a fake svchost.exe, cause I'm not a hack Tongue

Wolf0, i am sure you've posted before but i am curious as to what speeds can be achieved hashing x11 algo.  a screen shot is not necessary (i kind of like that fox though).
currently i am using amd290 amd280x amd7950.

Hi guys! Got a question what are normal speeds on Lyra2ReV2 with a 280x?
and is a optimised kernel avabl yet?



Not sure what normal speed would be, but a couple of pages back in this thread Wolf0 posted a screen shot.
pretty sure he was running lyra2REV2...and on the 280x it looks like he is getting 8.6 mhs

Hi,

Another reminder about sgminer-related job at NiceHash. We're looking for someone to integrate sgminer into our NiceHash Miner following same principles that are valid for already included cpuminer and ccminers. You can do it as a one-time job (integration only), or accept our long-term job to maintain and develop NiceHash Miner (see here https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=jobs and here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/10-btc-various-coding-jobs-available-by-nicehash-ccc-1220347).

Best regards,
NiceHash team

Mods definitely should remove viral posts immediately, or set the forum not be able to show links from newbie accounts...

Say "Thanks" to russian idiots.

So the sgminer.exe is infected, but do you try use these bins on clean sgminer ?
Don't works
Ok THX
For anyone who's rigs are infected , and don't want to reinstall system, try combofix, works.

Comodo Internet Security Free will fix your rigs permanently.  Wink

PS To whom it may concern: as you know the miner is infected, but you also should know that any try to use those bins with custom sgminer is useless. the names of bins are incorrect, the correct ones are:
fake darkcoin-modTahitigw64l8ku0.bin ---> real wolf-x11Tahitigw64l8ku0.bin
fake lyra2REv2Tahitigw64l4ku0.bin ---> real qubitcoinPitcairngw64l4ku0.bin
fake quarkcoinTahitigw64l4ku0.bin ---> real quarkcoinTahitigw64l4ku0.bin

So, be careful! Wink

I really can't understand why people would run a free miner from an unknown user... What do you expect? :-)
No Christmas yet ;-)

im safe?
You safe if you not run sgminer.exe. If you did it - your system is infected, virus read all passwords, scan your pc, can stole your wallet.dat files and also give an author of this miner full remote acces to your pc, but you can not to know when he is connected to your pc. You need to install antivirus or something else for internet security.

Also if you have a few gpu rigs and you using Teamviewer, be sure, hacker will connect to that rigs and infect them too.
All of my 7 rigs was infected by this shit, but I didn't launch this miner on them.

is virus on something that comes from link in screenshot...or does it install when trying to run these "new" bins.  I downloaded rar...and unzipped...but so far have not tried to run....did I unleash or as I didn't run anything from this package...im safe?

I'd imagine some would end up as Error -46
