Coinhive is a script that the owners have installed onto this forum, it uses YOUR computer resources to run meaningless computing equations for another site in exchange for online currency.
It's highly unethical practice and should really be illegal but is too new to be categorized just now.
I'd advise all members to avoid logging on whilst this concealed hijacking of your computer continues.

Was wondering what what going on...for a few weeks whenever I log into NESA my processor goes into overdrive & core temp rockets - anti-virus has been alerting me on every page and occasionally get the message "page has had to be reloaded because of a problem". Consequently haven't been visiting or staying on too long till I'd got word of what was going on...
