Ufasoft are you still updating the miner?
September 01, 2011, 05:45:29 AM
You don't need to move libraries in /usr/lib32! Just run application with whis string: LC_ALL=C LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib ./bitcoin-miner. Or use myself writed script.

There are Linux 32-bit unofficial binaries (one for CPU and one for CPU + AMD GPU). Need for test. If nobody will have errors, it can become official.

Thanks! I can run the CPU-only binary on a 64-bit server w/o any problems(except moving a lib to /usr/lib32). Now I don't need to compile it on a vm myself, since I still can't manage to compile this miner under 64-bit.

Got a response from them:
Dear Sir or Madam,
Thank you for your recent inquiry.
The file is riskware and the detection could be renamed to SPR/BitcomMiner.A. The new detection will be available with one of the next VDF updates.
For further questions don't hesitate to contact us.
Good deal. That's legitimate, companies and people should be made aware that such software is on their computer (if they aren't already), and there is potential risk involved with the software (potential legal liability or electrical costs, for instance). So long as it isn't flagged as a trojan or other malware, another AV company is getting it right. Hopefully the AV software in question has the option to not detect riskware (as they call it, every company has their own categories) and/or the option to specifically allow that risk (via definition instead as opposed to exclusion).

I think you should try to inquire as to what malicious behavior it contains. It sounds to me like they are reselling rebranded software and have no clue what they are talking about. I was able to get Symantec and GFI to reclassify the previous version as a potentially unwanted tool, which is accurate, unless there is behavior that would classify it as something else.
Sent them an email asking them to clarify. Will see what they respond with...

My hashrate went from 440MHs with 0.19 to 315MHs with 0.20. So I'm sticking with 0.19 for Windoze for now.

yeah, I missed that one.
Thanks, I'll see if it's dumb enough

So let me know when someone has dumbed down instructions so I can run it in Linux

Source Code of 0.20 for Linux released.
GCC requirement lowered to 4.4
AMD CAL/OpenCL supported (compilation works, but really not tested under linux).
Was that so hard? GCC requirement lowered to 4.4

OMG! Thank you! I will get right on this to test its comparative hashing power against cgminer. Remember everyone who intends on testing; test average results, not hashing speed as efficiency is a huge factor as well. GCC requirement lowered to 4.4

I beleive that we need to report the false-positive again. i beleive that they just don't get it.....and from waht i see most of the shitty anti-viruses just copy&pasted the detection from another anti-virus and chaged almost nothing in the detection...
The truth is, they do. Many anti-virus companies use a central means of updating their virus signatures as one anti-virus will see one sort of virus that another might not. And so, to keep them somewhat up-to-date, they share this information between each other via a central database. Unfortunately, this also means that false positives spread like wildfire.

It does indeed contain malicious behaviour, the detection is correct.
I suspect they think that any BITCOIN software is malware.
Anyway, to users who afraid about backdoors:
1. Create separate user account in your Windows.
2. Limit this account to access any files on your disk (except %USERPROFILE% of this account)
3. Launch the miner via "Run As" context menu.
4. Add Firewall rule, allowing the miner connect only to the Pool's IP addresses.
This way any software is safe to run. It cannot to steal or damage anything, or use your PC for Spamming.

Okay.
I'll have to study that a bit.
Thanks for being so helpful to a n00b
