 A portion of a WU download is failing the MD5 Checksum.  I have tried restarting BOINC, rebooting the PC, and aborting the WU even though it has not d/l completely. How do I skip the download of this WU? Can I get rid of this WU somehow? HOST ID: 161488 It is very annoying to see the BoincView "B" in the systray appear blue. I look everytime in the message logs only to find that it is the same file failing download. Please help....  |

 I fixed it myself by going into the BOINC R@H folder and deleting the file in question (actually renamed it first to test theory) and re-downloading it. I thought of this after posting the original question... sorry I didn't try all avenues before asking for help. Running fine again ;)  |
