Nearly 2,500 websites worldwide are infected or deliberately rigged with browser code that hijacks your computer's processors to "mine" cryptocurrency like MONERO(XMR)
What you can Do?
One Chrome extension, Coin-Hive Blocker, blocks the the Coinhive script specifically. It's a good short-term solution that doesn't affect other scripts or sites, but might not work in the long run if mining software migrates to other code. (Antivirus software doesn't always catch coin-mining scripts, which are legal per se, although Malwarebytes has added Coinhive to its block list.)
To make sure your browser isn't hijacked by coin miners, you can could use a script blocker such as NoScript for Mozilla Firefox or ScriptBlock or ScriptSafe for Google Chrome. Doing so will block most ads (including ours), but you can usually whitelist websites or scripts according to what you'd like to see.
