Have you tried detaching, then reattaching to the project?

I suspect that this is because you have a file or folder in your BOINC folder that starts with \'acc\', but is not a BOINC account file.

NOTE:
You must have some XML files that are named \'account_[URL OF PROJECT].xml\' where [URL OF PROJECT] is the project url.
e.g. the one for climateprediction is: \'account_climateprediction.net.xml\'

If you have any other files or folders that start with \'acc\', but are not of the type listed above, then try stopping BOINC, renaming the file/folder and starting BOINC again. (Ref: CVS, David 27 June 2005, account folders)

If you actually have a file named \'account_.xml\' in your BOINC folder, stop BOINC rename it to \'tmp_account_.xml\' and restart BOINC. After you\'ve confirmed that everything else is normal, then delete that file. (Ref: CVS, David 27 Feb 2005).

Telling us your BOINC version may help also... ;-)
