Just downloaded "xmr-stak-cpu". In the config file it is asking to enter three things:
1. pool address
2. wallet address
3. pool password
I don't understand what this pool password is? Because none of the pools have any sign up option which I assume is where we will set password?
or does it actually mean wallet password?

its assumed that this is just if they wanted to close of the pool access to selected people only.... I've mined loads of different pools and none of them use this feature, you can place what you ike in here or leave it blank. It will make no difference as open pools do not have a access password set.

Yeah I think this is what it is. One more question. On mining pool it is showing my pending balance is 0.09ETN. So if I stop mining now and continue tomorrow will it start from here i.e. 0.09 or will they be lost and I will have to start over?
