After a period away from SETI I downloaded BOINC and attached SETI, everything was working fine including Boinclogx and Map View.  Then I decided to also run the Climate Change Experiment.  I had to download the Screensaver software and during installation it closed the BOINC manager.  When BOINC manager re-launched it was running as BOINC manager for BBC Climate Change Experiment and no SETI was attached....<snip>

OK, I've solved it.  Had to uninstall the BOINC Manager for BBC, re-install the conventional BOINC Manager into its original folder, then SETI resumed with original WUs.  After that I attached the BBC Climate Change Experiment by, this time, adding its URL, BOINC then downloaded all its WU and software etc..  Then I noticed it was going to take 2887hrs+ to complete the Climate Change experiment and as it had preempted SETI I suspended it and let SETI resume.  All's well now.
