I keep getting install program interrupted before it was installed message. I run macafee on another vista device and BOINC 7.0.30 installed okay. No problems installing on XP machines with various anti virus programs. ID: 44669 ·

Last modified: 30 Jun 2012, 15:44:36 UTC Is avast giving some false-positive message during installation (e.g. 'Threat found, file quarantined')? If/as only avast (in your experience) prevents the install - report this to avast lab (link to this thread) so they can check what happens?
