"Gateway Anti-Virus Alert

This request is blocked by the SonicWALL Gateway Anti-Virus Service. Name: VB.A_77 (Trojan)"

It's likely to be a false positive, but we should check it out. I'm assuming Windows, but can you confirm whether 32-bit or 64-bit, with or without VBox?

Then we can check it with a service like https://www.virustotal.com/ - or you could reassure yourself by running your own scan there.

Many anti-virus programs these days flag a warning for an application which is new and untested, even if it doesn't carry any malicious payload.

Windows 64 bits without V-Box...

False positive, little doubt. Interesting though is the conhost.exe process, or should we say conhost.exe processes that only recently I noticed filling up the Task Manager list. My 8 core has 9 running, one for BOINC, 64 bit and 8 for the sciences, too all 64 bit. Seemingly only BOINC has these going. WUWAT?

This BFS article [url]http://boincfaq.mundayweb.com/index.php?language=1&view=584[/url\] implies there's also BOINC jobs that do not this middlemen, but as only doing WCG, would not be able to tell if that's seen.

Anyway, this one has never been giving any alerts. Just in case someone asks again.

Looks clean to me.
