Got WUs for project I don't want!?

Hi Tech-Team,

I noticed that crunch tests began when my PC started to crunch a WU for the African Rainfall project.
So far so good, glad to see that things move forward.
But since my hardware is quite old and slow, I unchecked the button to get WU for this project and I've also unchecked "send me wu when no other work is available".
Anyway I got a new WU for the African Rainfall project..!?

Is this a bug?

Thanks and best regards,
Jochen

Yes, most likely this is an :"old" bug, as I had that occasionally happen well before the transition from IBM to Krembil.

Given the overall scarcity of WUs due to the testing status of WCG's BOINC part, I would not worry about this and just abort the WU. It will be then send to another test cruncher to take over...
