I probably really screwed up how I joined the project and now my account(s) is/are confused. I tried to creat an account on the web site first as instructed. I received an account key in the email at imarlb(@)coaxim.com. When I tried to attach to the project, it told me I had an incorrect password in spite of just cutting and pasting the key from the email. I tried several times making sure everything was typed correctly but still no joy. So then I attached to the project using a second email account same username imarlb at gmail.com. This worked successfully and I attached. However when I check my account on-line, it has the first email not the second. Not surprisingly there seems to be nothing happening on this account. Is there a way to consolidate/rationalise these accounts? Even if the project is not confused, I certainly am.
I\'m running XP and Boinc version is 5.2.13.

Thanks.

There has been a change in the way to attach to a project. Unfortunately, the instructions haven\'t caught up yet.

You need to go to your account (in left menu) and \'Change password\'. Then use this new password when attaching to the project.
