I don't know if this could be useful, but probably i've founded another bug in folding@home that freeze the ps3. This is my configuration:

- Ps3 slim 120 gb
- Firmware: 3.01 (this could be the real problem)
- Folding@home: 1.21

Every time i start folding@home it says me to wait because it's preparing to download... But after minutes it doesn't download anything and the progress bar is still stopped... so I exit the game, but the ps3 hangs up for 2-3 seconds and then restart himself.

This problem occur everytime i start folding@home... I hope could be usefull to you (also if I think no... XD)

I think that the probem is that I'm still using 3.01 firmware with a recent version of folding@home. Probably new firmware add some function that folding@home uses...

If you want I can upload a video that explain everything better...

Sorry for my English... I'm Italian...
