I suspect your antivirus is acting like this due to the Bitcoin Miner Trojans lurking around the internet. Which executable was it targeting? poclbm.exe?

The latest version is being accused by Comodo Antivirus as being malicious (it says the name of the threat is ApplicUnsaf.Win32.RiskTool.Bitcoinminer.A@228517640 ), WTF?!
edit:hm, now it isn't complaining about it anymore...weird...

Do you have it set to autoclean?
Might have whacked that .exe...

Holy cow. I upgraded to the latest update from 6.14 and my hash rate is 20MH/s+ higher on both of my 5850s. Went from 320MH/s to 343. Thanks!!!!
Also, I too am having high CPU usage, but this happened with the previous release as well. I have each GPU set to use a different core and these two cores are pinned at 100%.

Seems quite common unfortunately. Supposedly this is never an issue in Linux

I once mined my GPU in OpenCL without any CPU resources being used. Since downloading Catalyst 11.6B I can't mine in OpenCL or Phoenix without 50+% of both of my cores in constant use. Is anyone aware of what may have changed and any means of mining without eating CPU resources? I know about the "affinity" method but my CPU already runs very hot so using 100% of one core is still bad.
then downgrade back July 15, 2011, 02:39:13 AM

1) Is there a way to setup GUIMiner so that it starts mining right away when the program launches?
That option is already present. Click on the Summary tab (if you don't have a summary tab, click View, and click show summary), then check "Autostart" for the miner you use.I did not have the summary page. Thanks!

latest download : mcaffee deletes ufasoft\bitcoin-miner.exe : claims trojan Generic.tfr!d
Can confirm this. Same thing here.

I have 2 quick questions:
1) Is there a way to setup GUIMiner so that it starts mining right away when the program launches?
2) Is there a way to get an automated notification when a new version of GUIMiner rolls out?

Thanks for guiminer I have used it for most of my mining life
Could I ask that http://ozco.in be added to to your drop down pool list please
will drop a donation in the box on the way out
Thanks again

This works great, very easy--- thank you! I jumped from 93.5 Mhash/s to 99 Mhash/s, beating the wikipedia Mining Hardware Comparison for a 5670 by quite a bit.

Hey guys...¿anyone knows how to ask the anti-virus guys about removing the alerts? AVG tried to delete the self-extracing installer.

I have made a small donation
Two quick requests:
1.) bitcoins.lc is still listed as bitcoin.lc
2.) can you add rfcpool.com to the list?
Cheers!

Well as long as everyone is making requests, I may as well make a few myself
- once you put in your api key, how about an option to automatically update your balance periodically? Nothing too often that might bother the servers if everyone decides to do it. Say, auto update once every half hour?
- a clear button on the console tab. I really don't need to scroll back several days.
- a clear stats button that resets the found/stales numbers back to zero. Useful for testing.
The second two can already be done by shutting down and restarting the client but that's such a messy way of doing things.
Then you can get to work on giving us all cool looking UI skins

Ironically the GUI of guiminer.exe (2011-07-01) disappeared from my Windows 7 x64 machine.
After investigating, I found out that poclbm.ini's settings for "window_position" were changed to -32000 for both horizontal and vertical positions. I reset them to 0 and I could see the GUI again when launching guiminer.exe. Hope this helps other people. You may want to check why it resets to -32000 instead of 0. It happened a second time to me just now, while I was opening and closing guiminer.exe to test it. Here's the ini content:
"window_position": [
-32000,
-32000,
160,
27
]

Odd, that happened to me too but only 2 times.
Also, could you add the feature for backups in the GUI instead of having to add flags please?
