I am getting the following type of error messages when returning a WU:

SETI@home - 2005-02-26 15:58:25 - Couldn't delete file projectssetiathome.berkeley.edu4ja05aa.29807.33568.940902.224


Does this mean the result is lost and in turn I have lost the credit for the work?

Is it possible to tract down a WU from this info to see if credit is pending/granted?

Many thanks

Usually when you see this the client tried to delete something twice. Restart the client a time or 3 and if you still get this message there may be a real problem.
