I get an "invalid response from server" from Setiqueue when trying to
upload results.  Because of the invalid response, the result is not
deleted from Setiqueue.  Once that happens, the result is flagged as a
dupe next time around and my totals are going backwards when it trys
to upload the dupe.  They screwed something up.

This is what's happening currently:
After a result has been uploaded, the client program doesn't receive an
acknowledgement from the server, so it doesn't delete the result file.
But the result is counted, as can be seen on the web site.
If the result file hasn't been deleted, it will be uploaded again after
some time.
This will give a duplicate result message. This won't affect your totals.
They won't go backwards.
You can safely delete such a result file.

I noticed that too. I was getting credited but SetiQueue was keeping the
files. Then it would try again and again.
