The Tasks pane shows “h1_0113.90_S6GC1__199_SBucketA_1†with a Status of “Download failedâ€. Is it just me, or is there a problem/incompatibility with this app? (Communication with other projects seems normal.) Any suggestions for a fix?

Download error
)
We got a couple of successful results from the ALTIVEC App, so it doesn't seem to be broken everywhere.
There is a slight possibility that the file is cut short on the download mirror that is automatically chosen for your client. Try setting your tiemzone to CDT (UTC/GMT -5 hours) and restart BOINC to download from the UWM mirror (you may want to set it back afterwards).
