Hey all,
Scanned brothers computer yesterday, found 18 malware. All random numbers + letters .exes with american flag symbols as task icon. Ran a boot time scan and found four "Java:Bitcoin -A" trojans.
Did the same to my computer this morning, found nothing with the usual found but also found this bitcoin trojan on mine during the boot time scan.
From what I've read about it, all it does is act as a mining bot on infected machines. One thing I don't understand is, it says it's distributed with pirated software but I'm fairly certain everything on both computers is legit.
My main question is, should I be worried about changing passwords etc ?
Thanks
