I've exited BOINC because every few minutes an MS-DOS command-prompt box pops up on my screen. It's titled "mfoldB110_310_windows_intelx86" and as I know nothing about MS-DOS I've no idea either why that box keeps appearing or what to do about it when it does (apart from closing it).<p><p>Help! What's going on? Thank you for any assistance you may render.<p><p>=^..^=
