Trend Micro's Vulnerability Protection blocking bitcoin mining

[p1r473]

Hi,
I am trying to mine bitcoin connected to my Asus AC5300. If I have Trend Micro's Vulnerability Protection enabled, I can't connect to the stratum mining servers.
How can I keep Vuln Protection enabled, but whitelist the Nicehash mining servers?
It seems maybe its blocked on Trend Micro's database, https://global.sitesafety.trendmicro.com/
Any way to fix it on Merlin side?

send a message to trend tell them its a false postive

Live with it...the service of Trend Micro isn't if much use if you can easily disable it's core functionality.

TrendMicro probably dropped in that signature as the botnet's were co-opting IoT devices for cypto-mining...

choices there are - probably disable that trendmicro thing, or as someone suggested, submit a request - and best to go thru Asus Support there, as directly contact TrendMicro will probably fall on deaf ears, such as it is with 3rd party code supplied from Asus...
