All cryptos are FIAT digital currency. Do not use.

Hey, it is always better to be safe then to be sorry. Also I bet that I've been using a computer longer then you have. I started using them back in 1984 and been online since 1986 and got my first internet account in 1994.

Where are the links to the results ?

My FTC QT is showing the normal botnet/ false ID and not what you are claiming.

A lot of things these programs are installed without people's knowledge on their PCs to mine, that is why they are sometimes considered "malware". You can view the source and compile yourself if you want to be sure it is clean.

I am in IT and I have seen many of that flagged by antivirus software. Even coin based websites can be blocked by corporate content filters.

No need to be alarmed.

This is a bit alarmist. I just did a single scan against Dimecoin-qt.exe;

Detection ratio:    1 / 48

That's pretty low. Could easily be a false positive.

Handy site link though. Danke.

Less alert! false positives are 1 in detection of 49 rising antivirus.
Source code can be checked and is clean.
Antivirus good, do not detect malware.
Executable to mine are always detected as a virus, and everyone this mining.
So... no problem !

So I checked some of the windows wallets at http://www.virustotal.com and I see quite a few of them have either Malware or Trojan or both. Here is the list that I found and the Malware or Trojan they have.

Malware and Trojan

Diamond Coin (diamond-qt.exe): Malware.XPACK/RDM!5.1
Dime Coin (Dimecoin-qt.exe): Malware.XPACK/RDM!5.1
Feather Coin (feathercoin-qt.exe): TROJ_GEN.F47V1122
Fedora Coin (fedoracoin-qt.exe): Trojan-Spy.Win32.Zbot
Hot Coin (hotcoin-qt.exe): WS.Reputation.1
Min Coin (mincoin-qt.exe): HW32.Laneul.iywu
Philosopherstone (philosopherstone-qt.exe): Malware.XPACK/RDM!5.1
Prime Coin (primecoin-qt.exe): Primecoin Miner; TROJ_GEN.F47V1123
Protoshares (protoshares-qt.exe): HW32.Laneul.asqy
Seconds Coin (secondscoin-qt.exe): Malware.XPACK/RDM!5.1; WS.Reputation.1
Star Coin: (starcoin-qt.exe): WS.Reputation.1
Terra Coin: (terracoin-qt.exe): TROJ_GEN.F47V1101; Trojan.Win32.Generic!BT
