My BitDefender antivirus is picking up false positives on rosetta_4.20_windows_x86_64.exe believing it is trying to encrypt slots5chk_S_00000014_FastRelax__chk##_fa.rng.state.gz files for ransomware purposes and "automatically restoring" them. I've since added an exception to the application myself but figured I ought to bring it up in case it interferes with some returned results or panics some participants.

one of my computers also had an issue with bitdefender. I also had to exempt it. Rip.

Just exclude the Boinc folders from your a/v scanning and you will no longer get those, most of those are false positives because of the way Boinc works, ie sending and receiving small bits of data to the same website over and over. Any real virus will try to escape the Boinc folders and will get caught by your a/v.
