The Coinhive Miner Trojan is commonly bundled with other free programs or browser extensions that you download off of the Internet. Unfortunately, some free downloads do not adequately disclose that other software will also be installed and you may find that you have installed Coinhive Miner without your knowledge.

Once this malicious program or browser extension is installed, the Coinhive Miner will inject an in-browser Monero miner from coin-hive.com/lib/coinhive.min.js, which uses more than 50% of your CPU’s power and graphics cards power. What this means, is that when the miners are running you will find that your computer is running slower and games are stuttering or freezing because the Coinhive Miner Trojan is using your computer’s resources to generate revenue for themselves.
This will cause your CPU to run at very hot temperatures for extended periods of time, which could shorten the life of the CPU.

When infected with the Coinhive Miner, other common symptoms include:

Very high CPU and graphics cards usage
Web browser is using more than 50% of the CPU power
PC connects to coin-hive.com/lib/coinhive.min.js
Windows minimize and maximize slowly, and programs run slower
Programs don’t launch as quickly
General slowness when using the PC or Web Browser

FWIW I have installed Privacy Badger and it and my normal protection software does not report a problem to me...all I have is a mild warning regarding www.newssltest.com
