Hi, Starting on 31 Aug 17, Symantec has reported 6+ multiple times on this file being downloaded by WCF from this project. Symantec is always up-to-date. Has the project been compromised?

This probably should be moved to the boinc client forum. UGM doesn't run anymore.

Thank you, ErikaT |

If UGM isn't running anymore, why does it suddenly appear in the virusscanner as a threat ?
----------------------------------------Like mentionned in my thread about this 'problem', just exclude the boinc-path from scanning ? ![]() |

Because the executables are still in the directory. They were not deleted when the project stopped. You can try to delete them from the directory but if the "sticky" indicator is set, they will be downloaded again. There are a lot of older stuff in the directory including programs, slideshows, etc. Just the way it is.. I've complained in the past but to no avail. Not a battle worth fighting

IIRC, detaching from WCG cleans out all the client knows, and then on adding WCG it would not try to pull UGM again, only the selected projects, as well as not pulling any old Beta test files. WCG just keeps those static files available to avoid endless nagging.
----------------------------------------That said, don't understand why WCG can't unstick those files on finished projects, so when the last task is done, all related to a done and dusted project is and remains unloaded? [Edit 1 times, last edit by SekeRob* at Sep 19, 2017 5:42:39 PM] |
