1) Message boards : Rosetta@home Science : Malware in downloaded Rosetta files (Message 81230) Posted 24 Feb 2017 by thekimaus Post: Seems that AVAST was a little bit nervous, after the actions on the day before yesterday the alarm didn't come up again. I had not stopped Rosetta, as there have been some tasks in process and others waiting for crunching, which had not initiated any virus alarm, and new tasks downloaded afterwards are obviously accepted by AVAST. I happily go on crunching, but thanks a lot for trying to help. :-)
2) Message boards : Rosetta@home Science : Malware in downloaded Rosetta files (Message 81212) Posted 22 Feb 2017 by thekimaus Post: Thanks for answer! I'm running BOINC on a mac, OSX Yosemite, Version 10.10.5 (Late 2014) with AVAST Mac Security 2016 for virus protection. AVAST says the infection is "VBS:Malware-gen", user is boinc_master resp. boinc_project. Since this morning AVAST has taken several files into virus container. Does that help? AVAST does not give deeper details, sorry. Regards, thekimaus

I've got a malware information: there have been 2 infected files within Rosetta downloads.
