Subject: Damn preferences!!!!

I have a machine that is running XP Pro, BOINC 4.09 and seti 4.05. *All* my
preferences are set for 5 days (General, home, work and school). I just
re-set the machine because it had WUs it wasn't going to finish in time.

It takes (according to the BOINC benchmark) 6 hours 37 minutes per WU. In
actual fact that's close, it actually takes around 6 hours 45 minutes. I
have the preferences set for five days right? I reset the client and it
downloads *48* WUs!!!!! Enough for around 13 days+!

I have another machine that BOINC benchmarks at 3:54 but actually takes
around 2:43. It's on the same preferences and it gets about the same number
of WUs. That's fine for that machine. However the other one is a worry.

Help?
