I installed it again this morning and after several hours, it was at 
about the same number of files that it was previously.

I turned off Boinc before because I thought maybe it had a problem, but 
that didnt help.

Right now I have Beagle on and I can tell a difference really. If I 
turned that and Boinc off maybe my system would be faster because Boinc 
runs 24/7.

Surely Google will run an update very soon for this.
