I believe _Darkstar was referring to bhantom (one of the people who responded to your thread).
Anyway, can you generate an nine letter addy (excluding 1)? What is your hash rate? Currenty my computer with a gtx 850 has a hash rate of 16mkeys/sec. However since I wanted the addy 1Loneshark (case insensitive), it will still take me 15 days before I genetare one. Was wondering if you can do this for me.

What are you talking about? I did not ever link any antivirus site..
If your service is for free, that will be very nice 
It is easy find services like this with uncle google: https://bitcoinvanitygen.com/
If someone is affraid can do this also offline on his own laptop - must only download vanity and wait..
Telling people later on to use virus scanners, and links an known scam site in his first post? Do your research with "uncle Google" beforehand linking scam sites, thanks. It is easy find services like this with uncle google: https://bitcoinvanitygen.com/

Vanity bitcoin addresses are just like any other bitcoin addresses, but they are unique in a way as they contain some custom text like 1BTC............ .One just uses the private key to add the address to his wallet.
There is no additional advantage of having one, but they just look cool !
As the user uses split key generation, so there is no risk of loosing funds as he only has half the key only.
Also do not trust any site that generates the"whole" private key as they are sure to scam.

Yeah, that's what I said already. There is no risk of security in the service I provide, because only the address owner has the Private Key. I only have one Part Private Key, while im creating your address.
Just to clear the things about security up.

No, you do not need a specific wallet. You can import this address into every wallet that allows it. I can recommend Electrum (Windows, Mac, Linux and Android) or Mycelium (Android only). At theese 2 wallets it is very easy to import the Private Key.
I also don't want to use the address generated by someone else, thats why i download vanitygen and i can generate address by myself.

Thanks for the sharing but I totally don't know how the vanity address work. Is it like paper wallet? You also said always check link thru https://www.virustotal.com/en/ is some kind of way to detect virus?
As wrote OP - this is normal Bitcoin address. This application allows you to create address which will be starting as you want. You can "design" first few characters.
https://www.virustotal.com/en/ - with that service you can check if file or URL have viruses.
That's good and nice stuff either. But after create the wallet address as I want to design it. Which wallet app will I use the address for? I mean does the address have a specific wallet it work with it or something?
I also don't want to use the address generated by someone else, thats why i download vanitygen and i can generate address by myself.

Good luck!
Just wanted to thank bhantom for good luck. To say it again: I hope I can provide a satisfiying service for everyone.
I'm sure you can
Well, but I think many people do not have the power to generate the address with the prefiy they want.
I think I will provide a good and safe service for all people who want a unique vanity address.

Yes, it is. And here is your advantage. Also generate the address is not easy.
Perhaps there will be someone who will want to use your services.

No, it is a normal Bitcoin Address. You get the address and the private key, which you can import into a wallet.
The link hasn't got anythimg to do with that.

Get your own unique Bitcoin Vanity Address!??? What that means I first time heard for that type of adress but I am really niterested to get it if it can give me more security or more profit.
Take a look on first post you can see the detail what it means ,you change the address to the ones you like it to be. It will not give you security nor profit it will only change your address Like mundang said before: It won't give you more security nor profit, it is like a normal bitcoin address. The nice or positive thing about a Vanitiy Address is that it presents you, it has its own prefix. For example: 1PokemonFun could be the first characters of your new Bitcoin Address.
And when you get a Vanity Address you can choose your own prefix.

Well that is a good point. Security comes for me first, therefore I'm using the trusted Vanity Bitaddress option.
Bitaddress is merging the two Part Private Keys into one. And if I have only one Part Private Key - the one that I generate, I cannot steal any coins from the address, because I do not have the other Part Private Key.
Same thing if you have only one Part Private Key, you cannot gain access to the address without merging the two Part Private Keys into the one "real" Private Key.

I just want to make it clear, be careful using this service a friend of mine did something like this and the person gained access to the private key and stole his balance. While I'm not accusing OP of doing this im just letting it be known and making sure everyone takes caution.
I personally do not like sites like theese 
, they could keep your private key and for me comes security first.
Well my plan wasn't to do it for free. My service should not cost that much.
It was thought for people who just want to get their own unique address, without a big knowledge and without any security risks.
I wanted to earn a few bucks through giving people the possibility to have their own unique address and making them and me happy.
Hope you can understand why I did not play my service for free.
