That's strange, I can access your site no problem with Waterfox - which is a 64bit version of Firefox, & my AV (Comodo) has never flagged cgminer.....

Some fucking moron has confused legit mining software with trojans packing ancient versions of cgminer as the innocent bystander. Unfortunately getting someone ONTO this list is easy and getting off it is annoying. FFS...
Here is the discussion trying to get someone to help resolve the issue but instead I only got the usual level of "well bad luck" type response:

Well supposedly I'm getting an S7 - so it would be soon after that if it happens.
Hi kano,
A little birdy told me that Yoshi was going to contact you about the S7 actually - maybe drop him a line to remind him? He does forget things sometimes....
I'm wondering why is Bitmantech hiding the dirivers/cgminer source code for the newer miners. The dirivers/cgminer source code for AntMiner S5 was the last one released to public. Maybe Bitmaintech is hiding something, or does not wan't for the drivers to be ported back to S5 (from S5+)? Since cgminer is licensed under GPL V3 I would expect Bitmaintech to release their modified code publicly, since they are selling it in a commercial product.
I couldn't agree more. I have no idea why bitmain don't just work closer with the cgminer devs, allow them to code the driver etc for their hardware & integrate it into the main cgminer branch. That way everyone can contribute & be able to update their bitmain gear easily to the latest & greatest cgminer version. Bitmains firmware has always been terrible & their cgminer fork really sucks the big one - it simply doesn't make any sense why they refuse to cooperate, it can only be beneficial to everyone if they did. Then again, bitmain do have a history of not "towing the line", both as a company & as a pool, so I suppose it's to be expected - but it does grind my gears.
Vote kano & ck for president.

Greetings -ck & kano,
Wasn't sure where to ask, so thought I'd try here. Are there any plans afoot for one of your legendary firmware/binaries for the S7, a-la the S3? I'd love to use them on p2pool, but the stability/hash rate is crap/unstable with the borked bitmain software.....
Thanks for all your work guys - top notch

I use U3 on Mac desktop with OSX and Oracle VB with Windows XP... and it works perfect - no dups, no stales, all the day about 62-63 GH/s. I also have non-static IP and cgminer reset U3 everytime my IP changed.
The problems appear when I move U3 to netbook Lenovo S9. Hardware is good enough for one U3, but its configuration and cutted bios make me crazy... I think the problem is in the netbook and BUS structure which I cannot change without extra soft or full BIOS... I do not understand why the same settings are OK on one machine and useless on another... All USB ports with plugged devices are USB 2.0... U3 recognized as 1.1 (((( I do travel a lot and like to take my toy with me, that's why I need to set cgminer on the small netbook instead of the desktop.

I still not able to get a copy of messages from working cgminer's cmd window, it starts with the message of "fatal JSON error in configuration file" (the same file on another machine works perfect), then "no hotplug usb devices detected", then 5-6 minutes it stays calm and after this pause come LibUsb Errors reset/success...
Never got a fatal json error before. Hopefully someone else can chime in on that one.
Good Luck,
Sam
The U3 is notoriously fickle and a piece of crap (see the U3 thread in hardware). I would suggest that much of your difficulty may stem from the device and not cgminer, per se. Do you have any other mining devices you can try?

I did reinstall zadig driver, unplug, plug again and run cgminer with command "-n". Cmd comes up with next -
C:\Documents and Settings\cgminer-4.9.2-windows>cgminer.exe -n
[2015-10-13 14:13:02] USB all: found 8 devices - listing known devices.
USB dev 0: Bus 1 Device 1 ID: 10c4:ea60
Manufacturer: 'Silicon Labs'
Product: 'CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller'
I did check usb-port settings with plugged in the same nest usb-stick first and then with U3 by AIDA64. The results are different...
Usb-stick appears on the first port with correct settings (USB 2.0/highspeed)
U3 appears on the last port and settings are USB 1.1/fullspeed
That's strange.
Also the results from PC Wizard 2008 look very strange - I found U3 connected but with wrong usb settings

Well, since it has not been clearly stated. Did you install the Zadig driver, then, unplug the device, then, replug the device, into the same USB port? CGMiner will not see the device until you have reset USB by unplugging it. Some need to take the extra step of removing power while its disconnected to completely reset. Once you have reset the device, double check the driver properties before launching cgminer.

I am not sure I can copy-paste from cmd line. But in words some results -
In the dos box go to properties and check the quick edit option. Then just select the text and copy it to the clipboard.
2. When I start with .bat file from previous post it still quiet as well, but after a few minutes starts to send messages Libusb attempting to reset and libsub Success every 5 seconds. No more information.
3. If I start by entering full path to the .bat file into cmd line it says - "cgminer.exe is not an executive file"
You must have your path wrong.Maybe it will be helpful to set the WinUSB to all listed devices from the zadig's dropdown menu?
I would not do that. Just do it for your miners. How many miners are you connecting to WinXP. XP has a limit of 12 or 13 devices. October 11, 2015, 02:02:31 PM
I am not sure I can copy-paste from cmd line. But in words some results -
1. When I start cgminer directly without .bat it still quiet for a while. I see that cgminer is connected to the pool but there is no section with usb device settingsand nothing happens in sense "accepted/rejected/duplicate/etc."
2. When I start with .bat file from previous post it still quiet as well, but after a few minutes starts to send messages Libusb attempting to reset and libsub Success every 5 seconds. No more information.
3. If I start by entering full path to the .bat file into cmd line it says - "cgminer.exe is not an executive file"
4. If I start with batch "cgminer.exe -n" to get information about devices i see found usb device 0; bus 1 (and this is the one that match my u3).
There are no error messages or "failed to..." stats.
Maybe it will be helpful to set the WinUSB to all listed devices from the zadig's dropdown menu? I do not go to use this laptop for other works than mining and hope that changing all usb drivers from current to WinUsb will not affect adding or moving files from usb-sticks and back.
Looking for solution to get at least screenshots of cmd. Will be back with pictures soon )))

Yes, I did. I did install 2102 usb to uart bridge controller and change driver to WinUSB using Zadig (with plugged U3 as it's written in the instruction to U3
)... Should I reinstall the driver? Or install the controller again?
)... Should I reinstall the driver? Or install the controller again?
Run Zadig again, select "list all" and verify that all your miners are using the WinUSB. Also copy and paste the error your getting so we can see what you are getting.

Thank you! Adding "pause" to the .bat file works perfect, cgminet starts with .bat.
There is another problem I found trying sugestion #2, using full command line in cmd - it says that devices found: USB 0; BUS 1 (and this is my u3!)
I am confused... It works perfect if I plug U3 to the desktop, U3 is recognized as usb device. But when I move it to the laptop it is recognized as BUS device and I do not understand why there is no connection to usb port. Both computers are with XP and have similar tree in device manager...

Did you install the WinUSB driver via Zadig for WinXP?
