The WU's have downloaded, 5 of them, and now they have sat there for two days, doing nothing. I go to the Work Tab and to the right they say downloading. I update and nothing happens, it has been like this for two days as stated before. How do I fix this?

The .exe or one of the supporting files was most likely corrupted on download. A project reset would be the next thing to try.

I had that problem also, so I tried a reset. Problem solved. I have no work units to crunch. I do not have one waiting to be downloaded. I do not have one waiting to be returned. It took me quite a awhile on dial up to get those 11 WU's during one of SETIBOINCS good days. Thanks, John.
