Two things.
First, download the current version of SETI Driver from
http://www.wakeassoc.com/setidriver. I have added true IDLE processing as
an option as well as cleaned up some of the code since the version that
Marcel is distributing (with my permission).
Second, I suspect you have a colon ":" in your proxy server name. If so,
this is still a known bug. If not, please email me your SETI Driver.cfg
file and I'll take a look.

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.
