1) Message boards : Number crunching : problem with boinc 4.45 or climate prediction? (Message 13657) Posted 21 Jun 2005 by old_user55072 Post: I went from 4.19 to 4.25 to 4.44, and to reccommended 4.45. The last one didn't behave correctly particularly in non-English environment so I returned to 4.44 that runs satisfactorily last 10 days.
