I don\'t see any computers attached to your account. Might a firewall be preventing connection? You need to allow boinc.exe to access the internet on port 80.

Credits are what you get after you have successfully calculated some data for any of the many BOINC projects, and uploaded it.

But it\'s only good for bragging about. You can\'t buy anything with them.
A bit like Monopoly money.
