I’m not a signature creator, but Reindl is on to something.  Some websites have 
started mining crypto currency using javascript using your computer if you 
visit their site.  It’s abusive, but not really malicious.

I’m guessing, as Reindl implied, that this signature is designed to detect such 
behavior.  Maybe someone who is more in-the-know will chime in.  In the 
meantime, you’re welcome to whitelist it or ignore it.

I'd like to ask if your minder, if you mine crypto conins that is, often pop up 
in clamav?
I have this one: https://github.com/sammy007/cpuminer-multi
and it gets flagged as:
./cpuminer-multi/minerd: Unix.Tool.Minerd-6404314-0 FOUND
Would someone know something more about that code and why clamav sees it as .. 
right, as what exactly?

didn't you notice that the newest shit is trying to abuse other computers for 
mine crypto coins even on websites with javascript?
