I downloaded some Asteroids NVIDIA tasks for the first time in years. I am using Windows 10 and Norton Anti-virus. Norton detected a threat while downloading for the Heur-AdvMLB threat, probably a false positive. The download fails.

I have a screen shot if that would help. I can upload the screen shot PNG file to a web site if it would help: it states: very few users, very new file, High file risk

Generally, is it still better to use Asteroid CPU tasks rather than use GPU tasks for my old-ish NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPU? It uses CUDA 1.2.

It's best to set your A/V to ignore the Boinc directories altogether, c:\program data\boinc, as this will stop you getting notified of any fake viruses, back and forth activity can seem like virus activity, and any real virus will try to escape the Boinc directories and be caught by your A/V. Norton for you. ALL Boinc Projects work very hard to keep their systems clean as any real virus can be a killer for them as far as ever getting people back crunching for them again.
