Hey y'all.

I finally got around to dumping the GUI version of SETI (probably just in
time for BOINC) and downloaded a package from:

http://members.home.nl/marcel.zuiderveld/

which did pretty much everything for me. Installed SETI Driver and SETI Spy
and uninstalled the GUI. It works like a charm, I'm returning three times
the units I was before as my machine is working all day while I'm working,
browsing, reading newsgroups and gaming. I no longer feel obliged to leave
it on at night now and again just to get a few units. <g>. My CPU sits at
around 50�C or less all the time (Athlon XP1800+ Tbred B at 10.5 x 200FSB
with a 0.15v over-volt and standard HSF with ducted outside-case air being
blown onto the CPU fan)

*However*, it's not automatically returning results and getting units after
a re-start. In SETI Driver, under the section Proxy/Socks server, the 'proxy
server' check-box is ticked and, when I re-start, in the top field under
host it has "-SETISPY".

If I remove that and click 'save configuration' then it transmits and
receives fine. However, upon re-start it's there again. It's no biggie I
guess but is there some way I can fix it?

I connect to the internet through a LAN via a dial-up machine which is
always on. No problem with anything else that uses the 'net.
