Windows communication failure: temporary workaround
Recently, the Windows BOINC client stopped being able to communicate with some projects and with Science United. This is because of an expired entry in a file called the "certificate authority bundle".
To fix this problem, download a new version of the file and put it in the
C:/Program Files/BOINC
directory.
This is a temporary fix. We hope to release a new version of the client that won't have this problem in the future.
