My son started an account on my PC and now all the work is done on his units. I cannot see how to change it back to my account. There must be somewhere I can log him off amd re-log under my account.

Open BOINC Manager -> (Advanced view) Projects -> Click SETI@Home then click "detach" from the buttons on the left. Then go to Tools -> Attach to Project to enter the wizard, select the project you wish to contribute to (if using BOINC v5.10 or later) and click Next, then select "Yes, use existing account" (or some such verbiage that indicates you'd like to use your existing account).

You should be back up and running on your account then.
