Good afternoon, background: In the past few months, I've seen a few articles on the internet about coin mining, also called cryptojacking. Seems that in a variety of ways, software can be loaded onto remote computers and then run to mine crypto-currency, often without the user knowing it. This is done to make money, sometimes for good purposes, but sometimes for malicious people or organizations. The running of most such scripts is barely noticeable (deliberately!), but some can take up so much cpu and/or gpu so as to fry the processors (by overheating them). question: I realize there's no perfect protection. But based on the knowledge and experience of the members of this list, which of the coin-mining blockers available for Firefox is best (most effective)? thanks, Bill. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
