Rice client used to work, now "has stopped working"

Symptom #1: "wcg_rice_graphics_6.17_windows_intelx75 has stopped working". This message appears about once every 15 minutes of CPU time; if I leave the computer alone for a day, I'll have about 3 dozen of these messages waiting for me.

Sympton #2: Inside my BOINC Manager 6.2.28, The Nutritious Rice for the World 6.17 project shows a "computation error". All other projects work fine. The Rice project worked fine until a couple weeks ago.

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with the latest Microsoft updates.

Troubleshooting attempts: I reinstalled the WCG programs, but still have the same problem.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Hello DavidEason.com,
Do you have a NRW work unit listed in your Tasks tab?

What security software do you use? Recent updates to a couple of security programs seem to be too sensitive where WCG is concerned.

For now, you are the only one reporting this error.

What security software do you use?

AVG AntiVirus 8.0.199, with web shield disabled and everything else enabled.

I also run that on three other computers (same security software) with no problems running the rice client.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hello DavidEason.com,
Have all 4 tasks stopped running or is this a problem with just 1 task? Have you considered aborting the current tasks?
