Bitcoin miner not getting detected by updated AV in Malware Finding and Cleaning Posted May 20, 2016 Okay so I have manually detected that my pc is infected with a BTC miner. My ESET NOD32 is updated to the beta version - hxxp://prntscr.com/b6a959 as you can see the virus database is up to date as well. Now, the malware, with AV scan: hxxp://prntscr.com/b6aa8g Okay, first i thought maybe it's a new kind that wasn't detected yet. But then I uploaded it to VirusTotal and got this output https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/9843735dd57e2b7d828061c9ddbf70e38f4f56efd0aa51bc33057a3bee17248c/analysis/ Their version of ESET detects it, so do a bunch of other AV's. What's going on here?
