NeonRevolt's website used to run a script that hijacks your computer to mine crypto.

Source? I can not recall if I have ever visited his site since learning about him here so how do we know if we have such a script running it? Would up to date security programs capture it?

His own admission. http://archive.is/l5xbc

The worst part he forgot to mention was that the miner auto runs unless turned off.

So how does one remove the script? If I wanted to run my comp for crypto, why would I give that time to mine to someone other than myself? How is it legal to even do such a thing without someone's permission? What a fuckface.

Thanks for the info @stens
