I get an error where it says that I failed to log in and that I should recheck my account id. Of course, I rechecked it several times. The id was able to log me in to see my stats, but not to connect to the project. Any ideas?

edit: I have tried this from two different locations, with both XP and win2k with the same problems.

edit2: Ok, I figured out the problem, I was using BOINC version 3.xx, and 4.xx is necessary for this project, 3.xx for all others.

Yes, but do watch out if you still have work units for Predictor, Seti and Pirates, as they will be reset & deleted.

Next time leave the error message.

&gt; Sorry About that, I am still trying to figure this out. I have followed all the steps etc, downloaded the 4 version &amp; it still won't allow me to log in. I have copied &amp; pasted my account id accross. Don't know what to make of it all.
