I have been getting the following error for several days and I am not sure what to do to fix it:

Re: Scheduler request failed: Unrecognized or bad HTTP Content or Transfer-Encoding

Boot computer and modem/router. Also, if using DHCP [Router assigning IP address to computer in dynamic fashion], change the DNS addresses in the router. E.g., switch to OpenDNS 208.67.222.222 + 208.67.220.220. This overrides your local ISP DNS server which could have gone stale for the HTTPS part.

Why this happens to some and not others, don't know.

Coincidence? Exact same problem presented in thread at BOINC forums and going away again: http://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=10288#62202

It's a problem that tends to solve itself, eventually.
