RE: SMARTCASH - WHAT IS IT? AND WHY YOU SHOULD CARE!
My AVG anti-virus software is blocking this download Markus - unfortunately I won't be able to join you in this Smartcash adventure. At least Steem is heading in the right direction. SirKnight.
That sucks @sirknight! Web and mobile wallets are on the roadmap as the size of blockchain is growing and downloading the whole blockchain like this will become harder and almost next to impossible just like bitcoin. Maybe you can join us then! Thanks for popping by :]
I tried installing the Smart Cash Wallet and Avast prevented me from running it. It's likely a false-positive, but it makes me wonder what it's doing that freaks out my anti-virus.
Some AVs flag the mining software built into the wallet. I believe I saw a post that future versions would have the mining with the wallet option removed to get rid of that flag.
I managed to install it by disabling Avast and windows firewall. When I reactivate Avast, it deletes my Smartcash Wallet executable. I'm looking for a whitelist or exclusion option in Avast. If they offer one, it's hidden pretty well. @ironshield
We are working on taking out the in-wallet miner which is causing this, same thing used to happen to Bitcoin.
