Go to "your account" on the Seti front page, then click on "view computers" and select the one you want to delete.
On the page of that computer the number after "results" should be zero to be able to delete this host. If that is the case you will have the delete option at the bottom of the page, if not then you have to wait until the number of results is zero (this can take several weeks).

:-)

I have a host that I have been trying to delete for months now. All results are at zero...the PC has never turned in a workunit. I'll delete the host and it always comes back. Anyone know what gives?

I have seen this same activity on my P3 500 Win 98 machine , amongst others. I've especially seen it when I reconfigured my network, added a network card, added a wireless network card and install VNC (virtual network controller) software. Each time my IP has changed it added another host which was the same computer.

Which OS are you using? Have you played with the network settings? Have you recently installed any new firewalls (like McAffee)?

Windows XP SP1
Haven't messed w/network at all.
No new firewalls either. I run Norton on that machine. My ISP has is own firewall.

It's a P4 2.8C on an 865PERL Intel board. 512 PC3200 ram, GForce4 video by MSI. Network is built into the M/B.
It's quite a mystery to me. I just keep deleting it...someday it may stay that way...maybe...?

Howdy!

All nice and well, except for some strange reason some WUs/results never get flushed from the database and thusly sometimes the number of 'open' WUs for a given host never drops to 0.

Here's an example of a stale WU:
