Hey, thread already open, been notified tonight of fake feathercoin site. www.featherscoin.com.
ALL downloads are fake, feathercoinQT.ZIP, all payloaded, tested in W7 and XP sandboxes against malware bytes/clam av sourse.
Just need a mod to run a sticky up the flagpole!
Thanks to Nick at bitcoin stack exchange, (correction sorry) for heads up.
Cheers
Bob
OK Warning everyone, the feathercoinQT.zip is payloaded, just tested in a sandbox: Trojan.bitminer/IMWB.EXE/IMDCSC.EXE RUNNING IN PROCESS MAP.
Have to shovel this one upstairs for public release…
Yep see that, google struggles and redirects to the legit site…
But its alive and real, cheers for heads up!
Everyone client is called: FeathercoinQT DO NOT DOWNLOAD! It may be payloaded, im just checking in a sand box against clam-av and malware bytes.
Bad URL: http://www.featherscoin.com/
Dont turn it off! Even shutdown most PCs pull some watts, the MOBO is still alive for USB and wake on LAN etc…
We use Sun Microsystems work stations M40s (Dual socket opterons) as our main PCs with Nvidia GTX280 (counter_strike source) even off they pull 20ws so dont worry about! :)
Get some rubber feet and relax :0
Hey, running under Ubuntu 12.04/Mint Maya, i can run both FTC AND LTC clients ok, W7 the same ok under VmWare. i have a few Esxi XP test silos so happy to try if still an issue?
Just PM for more help?
Cheers
Bob
Hey mate, just use some rubber feet with a sticky back. Hobby Craft, Robert Dyas etc. I just use a few to support the MOBO and allow a bit of airflow.
You should be fine if your are using a modern, high quality 3 pin UK plug PSU (Self Grounding) You won’t need to earth the system as the MOBO is grounded via your PSU and the PSU of course has an earth pin(UK). The the 12/5V power cable to the MOBO has a ground pin.
Many modern PSU have all sorts of safe guards build in above and beyond; thermal fuse cutout, over/under-load, short circuit etc etc
If anyone else wants to comment on this one please be my guest?
I’m running 5 open airs rigs with Fractal design PSU’s and no issues so far, i have also been building PC/Server rigs for over 20 years so I’m sure you will be OK!
