Yes because this jpg file is used in the graphics as well as in the screensaver. It comes together with the Setiathome software. Detach and re-attach to Setiathome. This should resolve the problem. After this is done, please check that your PC is not twice registered. If it is, you will need to do a "Merge" of your 2 registered PC's. Greetings from Belgium. |

You might also try deleting the file from the project directory. John Keck BOINCing since 2002/12/08 |

You might also try deleting the file from the project directory. > John Keck Detaching and reattaching led to the same problem. I found the project directory and deleted the file. Now I just have to wait for the project server to come back online. |

It turns out my problem was with my one ISP, SprintPCS (cellular G3). They compress jpg images with a certain amount of loss. My guess is any ISP that compresses jpg's with loss will be a problem, e.g. AOL 9.0, etc. When I got home and used my cable Internet then it works fine. |
