Greetings:

I knew something wasn't right when I saw my Rosetta screensaver wasn't displaying the normal graphic.

It showed only the blank chart form, with no activity, even though the displayed work unit numbers indicated that activity had, and was taking place.

I exited BOINC, and then reloaded it, figuring that might solve the problem.

Alas, now the Rosetta screensaver wouldn't display ANY graphic, not even the blank chart form.

So, I aborted Rosetta, and went to another project, which was operating normally.

Up popped an alert notice from the Norton anti-virus program, saying Rosetta had caused a HIGH security risk in my computer.

Here is what Norton detected and quarantined:

c:documents and settingsall usersapplication databoincprojectsboinc.bakerlab.org_rosettaminirosetta_2.15_windows_intelx86.exe

Norton did not specify if this HIGH security risk was a virus, worm, or trojan.

Norton did indicate the threat had been fully removed.

Thank you.
