It's nothing to do with BOINC.

You need to do a full system scan on all your systems for malware/hijackers.
I keep getting warnings. "IP address blocked."

It's of course depends on the version of the OS you are using, but from my experience I can say, if you don't use 'premium' features of any antivirus, then you don't need them, since the default Windows Defender (at least on Windows 11) is good enough.
