I know,
         I know.  Non-Deterministic calculations.  Yeeeessss.  That is at
least  a good (and rational) reason.

        * There must be some  proper way *........ how to inform user that
 BOINC is not stupid,  just the task or APP-algorithm  is a bit  abnormal /
excentric.



              Wait,  what if  we showed  a  link to a *short explanation* /
text about typical behavior of those tasks/ app  when  user tries to abort
 some  task at  99.98 +   progress?    Might be directly in the  dialog ,
but in RED and  BOLD,  so that the person  reacts quickly   -  cancelling
the  automatic "Click OK"  attempt (which is really as fast  as  a
jedi-reflex).    I think only something BIG RED can  stop it ;)


             What do you all think?
