Title: Deep Screen
Post by: REDACTED on July 27, 2014, 03:53:49 AM

Deep Screen keeps launching on the same file - SetiatHome .exe, but never finishes.
Very frustrating and I've now added that exe file as an exclusion but that exclusion is being ignored - Deep Screen just launched again!
Really don't see how Deep Screen is helpful.

Do you mean SETI@home.exe?
If yes,
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/startups/SETI@home.exe-4874.html
and
http://www.file.net/process/seti@home.exe.html

If the file is really legitimate and clean,
Make sure to set exclusion in all possible places, there are at least 2 I know of, but there maybe more,
or send to avast as false positive.

Thanks. But what I meant to indicate is that Deep Screen keeps analayzing an exe assoctaited with SetiatHome project.
Also, Deep Screen is ignoring the exclusion list.
The main issue is that Deep Screen never finishes and never reports anything!

The actual file is setigraphics_7.00_windows_intelx86.exe located in C:\ProgramData\BOINC\projects\setiathome.berkeley.edu
