  We propose to use residual parafermions of the overscreened Kondo effect for
topological quantum computation. A superconducting proximity gap of
$\Delta<T_K$ can be utilized to isolate the parafermion from the continuum of
excitations and stabilize the non-trivial fixed point. We use weak-coupling
renormalization group, dynamical large-N technique and bosonization to show
that the residual entropy of multichannel Kondo impurities survives in a
superconductor. We find that while (in agreement with recent numerical studies)
the non-trivial fixed point is unstable against intra-channel pairing, it is
robust in presence of a finite inter-channel pairing. Based on this
observation, we suggest a superconducting charge Kondo setup for isolating and
detecting the Majorana fermion in the two-channel Kondo system.
