Why is this virus being transmitted in Einstein@home files? There is no other explanation, this incoming file has been infected and is being propagated to Einstein@home users. The only other detail is that a new virus definition file was downloaded by Norton prior to reporting this virus, the question is wether it is a false positive or not, so I'm not trusting anything at the moment, until this virus is looked into.
