There's an ugly bug in the BOINC window. Black text on black background! A message to ALL programmers in the world; NEVER set color attributes on either foreground OR background. Set it on BOTH or NONE of them. To see this bug, open the windows control panel. Set window background to black with light text on it. Now take a look in BOINC. Everything is black because the BOINC programmer set the font color attribute to black, but didn't change the color attributes on the background. Please respect that some people prefer BLACK background with light text on it.
