if you have Norton Antivirus or Norton VPN, delete the software ASAP.

Norton is automatically installing and running a cryptocurrency mining program in the backgrounds of their users. There is no text box asking to confirm the use of this program and is installed automatically, it runs during “downtime” on your computer . While the official announcement said that this program was exclusive to the US, international users are reporting it as well. We don’t know the exact scope yet.

To delete this program, must go into the files (Program Files/Norton) and delete the file NCrypt.exe. It will ask for the admin permission. (Some report having admin permissions on their computer but being unable to delete the program.) If the software is already downloaded to your computer, I would NOT recommend continuing to use Norton, as there is no guarantee that the .exe file won’t return in another update.

Tell your friends and family, reblog, spread this, please. It’s barely been getting any attention, and I worry that Norton is setting a precedent that other companies will repeat. However, if a large (or very vocal) part of the userbase continues to complain, it may make Norton or other companies think twice before mining crypto on your computer.

Confirmed on Norton's website 1/4/22.

This was trialed in their early access program in June of last year, and is now included with all subscriptions.

Don't want to mine cryptocurrency? You should use a different antivirus.

Windows Defender is actually pretty good last I checked.

[dduane]

...UGH. :/

[wandererriha]

May I offer as a superior alternative:

- Avira

Basic free version works on both phone and computer. One year package starts at $15. The bundles tend to be a hair pricey but the coverage is genuinely good.

- Hitman Pro

Specifically destroys malware and mining software. Sadly, it is not free, but a 1yr plan is $25 which isn’t bad.

[wandererriha]

UPDATE: According to a Norton customer service rep, the crypto feature is “integral to the software running properly” and cannot be manually disabled. Norton has now blocked any method of manually disabling the feature, and has deleted several posts outlining how to do so.

The only way to remove the feature is to uninstall Norton.

[vanhooon]

“Norton also takes a sizable cut of the cryptocurrency once it is mined. The company takes 15% off the top as well as variable transaction fees when you move the crypto to a different wallet.”

It apparently can be turned off (if you know anything about fucking around inside software), but I’m more concerned in how they’re using their customers to just take extra money off the top.

Ok, just to make sure it's clear, I checked out the links on this and did my own research to make sure they were valid (mostly b/c my family has used Norton forever and I'm about 2 seconds away from ditching it regardless of any of this. It's basically just one big ad for their products anyways and it's pissing me off.) But yes, it does have a crypto mining option THAT U HAVE TO OPT INTO. It's for people that CHOOSE to run it.

Yes, the program still exists in the files.

Yes, they could start running it in the background if they so choose to.

But as it stands rn, it's something users can choose to turn on and off on a whim.

I just wanted to reiterate that since there's a lot of people out there yelling about how they're mining without ur permission. No, they're only mining the computers they have permission to mine. Not that I agree with it, or, in any way, like that it's an option. It's still just that. An option.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
