What type of virus does it describes (trojan, malware....)?
Have you tried avira? That antivirus is more soft. I had the same problem with minergate but I simply removed antivirus, I amn't using that on my regular pc ( it takes a lot of cpu usage).
My suggest is that if you think that isn't antivirus error (sometimes antivirus reads file as a virus by mistake) than keep your important files safe, out of that pc and continue mining but I think despite that fact everything is safe.

No, I'm pretty sure this can't happen.

Generally since they're EXE files and have a lot of power over your computer antiviruses won't like them.

But I didn't realise that there were antiviruses that just flat out stop you from doing things if you want to, can't you allow it somehow?

My Norton, it's legal license, does not accepting it anyhow. Only when I disable it.
Also,on my other PC's there is Microsoft's AV and it is the same. Have to turn it off and then it works.

I am mining alt coins a long time.
Now I  have 4 PC's and on every PC I have antivirus software.
Problem I have is: any CPU mining software I try to use is being recognized as a virus or trojan and it cannot mine if I don't disable my AV. So I need to know if there is any software that I can use without disabling my AV?
Currently I am mining Monero (XMR) and I tried miner by W0lf, miner by LucasJones and miner from Minergate.
All 3 are recognized as trojans or virus software, so I can't mine. Any alternative? As I don't want to disable my AV every time I start mining. Last time I did, I had an intrusion even my firewall was ON.
