Last week my XP64 machine had an Astropulse unit that ran
for eleven days. Then it went berserk and opened up over
five-hundred tasks. Then it failed with a program error, for
which I received no credit.

I would just as soon keep Astropulse away until it works
better.Is there any way to do that? Thanls

I had two AP units download this morning which showed 356 hours for completion.  Up until now, an AP WU took about 80 hours on my computer.

I went to the S@H Web site and changed my SETI@Home preference "Run Only the Selected Applications" by unchecking Astropulse.
After that I Reset the Project and the program downloaded only non-AP WUs.
