SETI's page is once again available, but the majority of their servers are still down and not even appearing on the status page.

I opened the gadget and found out why my antivirus flags it: the javascript is obfuscated:

var i,y,x="blahblahblah";y='';for(i=0;i<x.length;i+=2){y+=unescape('%'+x.substr(i,2));}document.write(y);


such an unfriendly way to distribute a gadget, especially since it causes some virus warnings. any chance of getting a plain unobfuscated version?

I just tried to download and run this gadget on my Win7 computer, and my Avira Antivirus popped up a warning about two files: boincgadgetv1.html and prefs.html, saying they both contain "HEUR/HTML.Malware suspicious code."
Can someone else check it with a different antivirus to see if it continues to be flagged?
