just curious about the difference between the v4.43 BOINC SETI client i install, and the v4.18 version (of something?) that downloads and "uses" when processing...

BOINC 5.8.17, SETI@home optimized 5.18 v7.1 g4no graphics

G4 dual 867MgHz OSX 10.4.3

BOINC 4.43 is the BOINC client, not the SETI app. BOINC is just the framework for many different projects and only handles the overhead processes like upload, download and results display. The SETI app itself is the 4.18. That is what does the actual processing.
