Didn't read the Boinc web page did you?! It says "May 3, 2005
Our Cogent link has been down since around 9:00am PST (16:00 UTC).
Data servers are currently unreachable. The problem is currently
being diagnosed. Update: The latest word from Cogent: "There's
currently a UFO (Unlimited Fiber Optics) issue that is affecting
multiple customers that we are working as quickly as possible to
resolve. It is possible that this issue is causing this particular
outage. There is currently no ETA on resolution for the current
issue." Update 2 (23:30 UTC): Cogent has isolated the fault and
has dispatched a person to fix it. We hope to see it fixed soon. "
All that means is people are unable to acces Berkeley's system!!!
Sometimes the web page has some useful info.

Yes I read it 2 days ago and figgered it would be fixed by
now.......I have shut it down for the month of May will check again
on June 1st.

That'll show em!

Damn right it will ;-)

Why not just let it run?  If it connects, it connects.  If it doesn't,
it sleeps for a while and tries again.  Big deal :-).

(I have mine set to a 4 days cache and invoked with
"-return_results_immediately".  That keeps it running and the cache
filling, though the cache has been half-eaten at times.  I did try
with
a larger cache, but I seemed then to be always the fourth return.)

Thanks for the tips but I don't have a clue what your talking
about.....sounds interesting.  I have a dial up and because of weather in
this area I don't leave my connection on unless I am here.
