I don't know about the end but the beginning of every workunit is the
time when the processor works the hardest.
You have some serious cooling needs if you are running a standard, non
overclicked, system and your temps are reaching 65c!
You need to either put the covers back on, blow a fan into the open
box or put some more chasis fans in your system! OR get a better cpu
fan! 
I have a 2800+ with a Soyo board and a generic case and the temp is
47c right now! I have Seti running 24/7 am on-line with you and my
mail program is running too! Oh and I DO NOT use thermal compounds, I
was told unless I am going to overclock, the chance of putting on to
much and shorting things out outweighed the advantages.
I have 2 pc2700 chips and 512 meg of ram. I also have a dvd writer and
3 hard drives! I can put things to work here and I have NEVER seen the
temp go over 51c!!!! And YES I used to check often!

Using SetiSpy there is an option under the Client configfuration tab to stop

This is greyed out on my SetiSpy and I cannot find and way to activate it.
Any thoughts?

I have the client set as SetiDriver, which in turn is running the 3.03 CL
version.
My previous and other pc configurations have worked fine this way, however I
have a new motherboard (Soyo SY-K7VMP2) with Athlon XP2400 processor and
512mb PC2100 ram.

The cpu is frequently overheating, very often at the end of 1 WU and the
start of another.  I have checked the cpu and fan mounting, have the right
amount of thermal compound etc etc, but it's really frustrating to find your
system powering itself off every couple of hours.  I also don't want to fry
the processor or motherboard.

But - I do want to continue running Seti!  If I can get the SetiSpy option
to stop the client working that might help resolve the problem.

I'm just about to process my 13,000 WU this weekend - woo hoo :)

Thanks in advance.
