I am in this catorgory. But if I do this will I have to start all over 
again at 0 credits.

NEVERMIND.This is only for new accounts.I started BOINC SETI already and 
tried to put in my current Boinc email address and it said an account 
with that address already exist which is mine.

Thinking out loud here...if you were to sign up for a free email
account at say yahoo and then usethat account to sign up for Boinc
using your Classic stats. Maybe you could then crunch under it instead
of where you are now. Then you could close your current Boinc account,
which should remove the emaill address, and then change the yahoo
address to your real one.
Long and conveluted for a small line in your stats but a possibility.
You propably would have to wait for all of the units you are now
crunching and returning to be credited and deleted too. I have some
waiting since July 2004, so it may not work.
