Wont spend time wrapping my head around this because Im lazy to hop on to linux but I can bet the dreadly reddishness in the virus scan may be reaction to python header or unsigned reference linked to a graphic file somewhere in the code.
I dont think that is it.
I compiled same source and got only 2 bitcoin PUAs.
So dev got it flooded when compiled it.
But still 99% sure all are false.

Dev been online but no commments..
What the fuck dev is still doing with that account??
Steeling us!
This guy
username_007 is one of those who was supporting another newly released Trojan ridden shitcoin where there was blatent proof by multiple users of a injected virus yet he was consistent with saying it is perfectly safe
Anything he has to say hereafter is undoubtedly just lies and misconception.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/--1686142Well I have used his own wallet and there was no virus inside. So calm down and stop throwing dirt.
clearly something is not right with dev's build. When build from source you see only 2 flagged "bitcoin miner" which is fine, but the one which flagged 12 issues including the most trusted ones like Sementec.
There is a still unkown reason for that.
My guess is that zerocoin code has parts that makes virus scanners swing around.
Virustotal seems to have somehow changed.
First time it takes so called quick scan.
Then you see only 2 PUAs.
Try after a day, you will get 4-8 more. All false.
Try after 2-3 days.
Your file is now as clean as it was in the first scan!!
About the coin stealer coin.
No one has no proof about real working virus.
Personally i think that there never was a suchs thing.
If after many days only 1 scanner flags file, then it is more likely that you have false positive.
In the other hand.
When it says coin stealer people who dont know so much about are scared out of shit.
No matter if it was false or not only action is to be paranoid and act as it was the real thing.
(Goooood way to kill a new coin)
I always knew something wasn't right with this coin or even the announcement layout since there is so many newbie coins using the same stuff and putting viruses inside the wallets to steal your BTC or ZEC.
You know what is funny, a few noobs saying it is perfectly safe and then some higher ranked members who have been around for a while coming in and and proving them wrong, it's as if you want people to download it as you try to force feed them & reassure their safety, on another note I suppose our multiple detection programs are stuffed up too when flagging the coinstealer trojan/virus and many more, I guess you will say other coins have the same false positive even when they don't use the same code or part of code as Zoin
I also noticed that you 2 seem to be posting in the same threads after each other quite a lot, coincidence or just random occurrence that keeps happening ?
Oh and again I see you are affiliated with another virus coin with a Remote trojan built in that scans clean but has a hidden trojan inside.
Trust because of this is diminishing and nobody will download altcoin wallets anymore unless big people who are trusted are backing them.
