Your team suffers molecular attacks while in the geoscape (where you can see the whole Earth)??

This game was buggy, but I don't know if I can believe that without seeing it! :blink:
I assume this happens on missions, that's another deal. If you suffer molecular attacks this means... well, that you've encountered aliens with that skill. It's one of the aliens' more powerful weapon, and you might not be prepared for confronting it at the beginning. So maybe you should leave that UFO alone, and go for the next one. If you're really playing in beginner, such hardships shouldn't turn up often.
However, different soldiers have different resistances to molecular attacks--you get to know this once you research this field. So you might want to transfer that soldier who's always targeted by the aliens' molecular attacks, and transfer him so that you've got one base with a molecular-resistant squad, that's what I do.
