PortalJust got a new GTX 580 and updated to version 3.4. Set up the tracker by letting it autodetect which it did and let it set the defaults. Started the tracker and within 15 seconds Norton Sonar quarantined it then removed it--something about fahcore_15 acting suspiciously, very few users, released within the last week, etc, etc. Tried it a second time and same thing. There is an option to restore fahcore_15 in Norton which I guess would let it run. Any suggestions? Don't won't to disable Norton totally. Gee whiz--just spent a bunch of money to be able to GPU fold again and so far a no-go. Not even sure what fahcore_15 is; part of the tracker or a real virus or something. Please advise. Thanx--

FahCore_15.exe is the folding core that runs the actual calculations. This file is downloaded by the FAH clients, so it is nothing to worry about.

Jedi--thanks again for your quick response. I did some searching after I posted and it looked like fahcore_15 was the real deal. I will try to restore it in Norton or just get Norton to ignore any instances of it. Not a peep out of Norton with the SMP client so suppose it tasted something it didn't like in fahcore. Again, couldn't believe how easy the setup was for the GPU! Autodetect, set defaults and go! Hope Norton won't be so testy now. Later--
