    Scan type: Auto-Protect Scan

    Event: Security Risk Found!

    Security risk detected: PUA.WASMcoinminer

    Looks like something on the site may be trying to get user's computers to mine cryptocurrency for them.

          just on again after a bunch of other internet using an the message is popping up again. Not really giving me enough details to know that ED is 100% the source though.

          In messing about I've had it happen 13 times now, and only on ED. Waiting for IT to walk in and give me ****

            I ran over to another computer in the office and loaded the page and got the same error.

              Weird, I use Symantec at work and wasn't getting any messages. Kaspersky was giving me a message on my home computer though - now I just can't remember if it was ED or Vortex causing it.

                I am getting it as well. Windows 10, in Edge, ESET security is flagging it.

                  Just tried from my home computer again - it is Eurodrivers that comes up with the message. First time it came up was January 29th.

                          Joke's on them. I'm always mining for myself when I'm just surfing the web. I'm already using all my processing power! lol
