Hi. Have been a member for some years but the last week all downloads have failed. Also a program called KWSN_2.4_SSE3-Core2_MB.exe has been trying to download and fails constantly. Can anyonen tell me what this program is and how I can get back to downloading WU's. I've tried resetting the project and downlading the BOINC prog again. Thanks Ian

KWSN_2.4_SSE3-Core2_MB.exe is a third-party optimised application designed for use on the SETI@home project. If it is SETI that is trying to download the file, I suggest that you post this question again on the SETI message boards - it's not really a BOINC problem.

It sounds as if an attempt to optimise the SETI computations has gone wrong. The guys at SETI will help you either to get the optimisation working properly, or to return things to the status quo ante.

When you post at SETI, it will be helpful if you include some more details about your computer set-up - operating system version, processor type etc.
