Ditch67 Posted October 11, 2017 ID:1171560 Share Posted October 11, 2017 This appeared a few days ago (using Chrome) and Premium keeps blocking it. I know what bitcoin basically does and I'm worried it's eating up my processing speed. It had stopped showing up for a day but then came back. I was visiting Facebook and a local (trusted) news site when it started again. I haven't installed any new software. http://upnorthlive.com/news/local/deputies-investigating-disturbing-post-shared-by-east-middle-school-student Protection Event Report: Malwarebytes www.malwarebytes.com -Log Details- Protection Event Date: 10/9/17 Protection Event Time: 1:12 PM Log File: 0003fef2-ad15-11e7-869b-b870f4c25c9a.json Administrator: Yes -Software Information- Version: 3.2.2.2018 Components Version: 1.0.212 Update Package Version: 1.0.2981 License: Premium -System Information- OS: Windows 7 Service Pack 1 CPU: x64 File System: NTFS User: System -Blocked Website Details- Malicious Website: 1 , , Blocked, [-1], [-1],0.0.0 -Website Data- Domain: coinhive.com IP Address: 94.130.129.243 Port: [62739] Type: Outbound File: C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe (end) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Posted October 11, 2017 ID:1171564 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Hi Ditch67 What is the local news website you are visiting? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditch67 Posted October 11, 2017 Author ID:1171584 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The link has the exact page I went to. It was a link on Facebook to the news site I follow: upnorthlive.com I get the feeling that another site added the bitcoin thing and it's just set to go off every so many pages.

Aura Posted October 11, 2017 ID:1171685 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Ah sorry, it looks like I missed it. If you go back on that website, do you get the Coin-Hive block? If so, it means that the Coin-Hive miner JavaScript script is running on their website. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditch67 Posted October 11, 2017 Author ID:1171863 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) Not seeing it there today. Can a coin-hive site keep trying to run the script even though you've moved on to other pages? (I haven't seen it today, so far, btw) Edited October 11, 2017 by Ditch67 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
