Bitminter is a bitcoin pool, we do not use scrypt and I would be highly surprised if anyone was running any GPUs on here any more.
However, your problem finding a "clean" download may be that your virus program is detecting all of the mining core programs such as cgminer, bfgminer, reaper etc contained in guiminer package as "mining trojans" due to the fact that some assclowns distributed them as trojans to steal CPU power in the past.
I know this is a Bitcoin pool but I want to give Litecoin a try, and you're right about the GPU thing. I understand that there may be false positives, but there were a lot of red flags with the official GUIMiner-script download.

Can someone please give me a link or point me in the right direction to a safe GUIMiner-SCRIPT or CGMiner download? I have looked everywhere but can't find one 
. I would prefer GUIMiner-SCRIPT, but the download from tacotime has waaaay too many red flags when scanned by my antivirus and virustotal.

Based on hugely optimistic 6 month mining return on bitcoin.... $30

How much would you guys pay for a MSI AMD Radeon HD 7990 6144MB GDDR5 Dual-Link DVI-I GPU Video Card R7990-6GD5

I wouldn't call it a non-relevant thread. I think providing the 1 key data point I surmised from reading the thread is relevant to this active thread. If you don't want to read Newbie comments, feel free to skip this thread 
Oh .. and +1
Peace and love
I'm confused, I didn't understand anything you typed. It might be too late for forum reading.Oh .. and +1

Great pool, I had fun jumping through the history of this thread. Should have read it before I bought a used Jalapeno, I would have seen the posts back in May 2013 explaining how with the difficulty increases and increases in overall hashing, 5GH would only earn good BTC rates for a while. Oh well, at least my miner contributes to the Bitcoin network in general
Did you seriously just make a non relevant comment to a non relevant 3 year old thread? You're a newbie, I get it, you want to get your activity up. But at least post your useless comments on active threads, if you're gonna spam at all.Oh well, whatever.
Peace.
It means don't come in the thread and leave abusive comments. Bitminter is noob friendly.

Hey guys I got a quick question, how do you reset the COM numbers?
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4502440
Read that and if you still dont get it, lemme no.
I couldn't figure all that out, but it did help me figure out a way to do it. I went to my devices and printers section then I went to the properties of the miners hardware(individually...yes I know very tedious) and in the advanced settings for the port seetings I just changed the COM number. Thanks for the help
Great ! ya know I never even thought of that
must be to easy.... April 17, 2014, 11:50:16 PM

Any recommendations for a good powered USB 2.0 hub? I'm using an Etekcity 10 port right now but not too happy with it.
It's plugged into a Raspberry Pi so I need 2.0

This one has worked great for me for a while
http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Port-USB-power-adapter/dp/B00DQFGJR4/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1397515820&sr=8-7&keywords=7port+usb+hub
7 ports and 4A of power, plenty of power for 8 units, you can only fit one U2 and 6 U1's on there though. That's my setup and they all run 2.0GH/s
I'm running a RPi too and using this hub. http://www.ebay.com/itm/161225117669?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
It has the most ports that I could find for a hub that plays well with the Rasberry Pi. Unfortunately, I had to get it from Australia (I live in the US) so it needs a converter (no worries, they are really cheap) and it pretty junky. Its made of weak plastic and the power cord is really touchy so if you hit it or jostle the cord the power cuts in and out. It brings back memories of my once beloved Sega Game Gear if any of you are old enough to: A- Remember Sega Game Gear and B- Remember how temperamental the power cords were.
Other than the above mentioned, it seems to function quite well. I'm currently running 4 BFL 30 GH/s units and 1 60 GH/s (though it only runs around 55 gh/ s) and a few USB miners (1 antminter u1 and 3 Block eruptors)

The Pi is picky with hubs, see this list...

Thanks Cascaders28.
Blockorigin looks to match up with what the BitMinter website is reporting.
Wow... if we've really only found about a block per day over the last week that's really disappointing. Especially considering the computation power was around 450TH. In the past the BitMinter pool has averaged 3 blocks per day, with 4 blocks on a good day.
This kind of variance is too much for me, I think. I'm going to move to Eligius for a while and see if I can get better luck there. (Of course soon as I do that BitMinter pool will have a string of easy finds...
