Hi, I don't have the time right now to investigate this as I originally wanted to. So here is the problem. A user of RNAWorld is running two almost identical PCs with different VirtualBox versions. One PC is misbehaving using VB 4.3.6 one is running fine with VB 4.2.16. He has 7 tasks on each and restarts the first on a regular basis because of a memory issue with VB. The second computer was restarted two days ago and suddenly all tasks failed with an error. It turns out the server marked those tasks as error (outcome set to 7) because of a CPID change it detected:
scheduler.log:2014-02-08 15:56:35.4872 [PID=5349 ] [CRITICAL] [HOST#27812] [RESULT#14923722] [WU#6330820] changed CPID: marking in-progress result cmsvm2_GA-p[e30-50MB_Lin64f]_1_Oryza-sativa-Indica-Group_CM000129.lin.EMBL_RF00028_Intron_gpI_1330438623_68628_27 as client error! Because I had the users hosts under surveillance I can only say that the hostid didn't change and there are no such messages for the other host that was regularly restarted. They are both running BOINC 7.2.33 So far another user mentioned that a running task on his computer was canceled by the server. This is the client log: Dim 9 fév 22:19:22 2014 | RNA World | Task cmsvm_GA-p[e20-30MB_Lin64f]_1_Drosophila-melanogaster-(fruit-fly)_AE014298.lin.EMBL_RF00028_Intron_gpI_1349111823_15120_4 is 50.93 days overdue; you may not get credit for it.

I think this is some kind of security thing but if the task is still running on the host this shouldn't happen especially not after 800h of processing. All times are CET.
