The GUI wallet I made is completely virus/botnet/malware free. Just a simple AutoIT script to parse log files and fill in variables located in the GUI.

If you're unsure about the bitmonerod, simplewallet and minerd binaries you can download just the monerowallet.exe from here

Why post from a new account?

Someone should/must compare the included Monero Windows binaries with the officlal ones.

The .au3-script in the archive doesnt get dectected, see:
https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/417833baff91b4ac5bc62a359a3b3075312e39929d14338f0fa5f0f5b98d1306/analysis/1417002805/
But still could include malware-function or misbehave.

dewdeded, that doesn't look good, but don't legitimate miner programs like minerd.exe routinely get flagged as malware because of botnets?

Yes they do and from the screen shots it looks like this wallet does indeed have a mining function. So the possibility of the virus scan being a false positive is there.

Still, either way it is not smart to use binaries from unknown sources.

Quite. Anyway, I thought I should flag it up for competent folk to check it out. I didn't for a moment mean to suggest the unwary should just start running it.

This should be checked for malware/misbehaviour first by some people (minimal) familar with malware analysis.
Could contain an malware droper or wallet stealer.

Best is to examine the source (especially if it is fairly small, which it likely is) and recompile it yourself or have a trusted person compile it.

I suggested to the developer of that wallet that he upload the sources to github.

With that caution, it is great to see independent work being done for Monero!

I erroneously stated before that there was no source code, so I deleted that post. Nevertheless, beware that this GUI was posted with a new account, so common sense says you shouldn't trust the binaries provided. If you really want to try it out, I recommend inspecting the source code and compiling it yourself.

problem?

Just goes to show no matter how "idiot proof" something is, someone, somewhere isn't going to understand how to use it Tongue

. The web wallet is about 99.99% there though. Good job guys!

(Not calling you an idiot liteon, just using as an example of difficulty in making a perfect user experience.)

yes but as i say above, "under certain conditions" the private key is empty. Huh

(on a laptop win8.1/ie11 for me, i don't know which element is responsible)

so the new user is confused.

That was my point.
Nowhere explanation for a single and simple wallet creation as it is simple.
Why?
Too lazy to mark / or / bold the text which is the key?
Can be done like (example):
Your key is the red text:
and then the red text should be like this as your key

Makes people to feel sure what they are doing, as someone are for the first time and want to try.

Just received my first Monero coin (yes, a real coin) from cryptonic.net. A nice and convenient service - featuring Monero!
