Hmmmm, this must be SETI@home Classic, huh ???  Maybe you need to look into the BOINC project before you loose all your 50000 units.

Once SETI@home Classic gets shut down for good, they'll do a LAST transfer of the workunits.

Can you point me at a page which describes what will happen? Thanks.

That impressive result will not be lost.

One thing to note when moving over to Boinc is that existing s@h-classic users can have their classic results reported on their new Boinc account.

Follow the instructions/option for "existing classic users" when creating your Boinc account. Your classic WU count will then get transferred whenever Berkeley next take a results snapshot.

Good luck,
Martin
