Some browsers (especially older ones) may experience trouble with the SETI@home donation site at givetocal.berkeley.edu if the browser doesn't recognize COMODO CA, Ltd as a valid security certification authority. Details and a workaround are available here. ![]() ![]() |

Could someone please "un-banish" the author of this post? ;-) As it is, the link in the news item is not readable. Gruß, Gundolf |

Could someone please "un-banish" the author of this post? ;-) Maybe if the author wasn't such a rule-breaker, he wouldn't have been banned in the first place! Take that Dr. Eric! :-D |

Hello I must be vain, since I care about this issue. My donation is not fully listed. On my account I am listed for 1 donation, but I did donate twice this year. Did someone put the money in their own pocket lol ;-) I'm sure there is an answer to the "bug". Greetings Jan Petersen |

Hey Sorry I did not pay too much attention to my account. But sure I will do so. I remember both times was in October only 7-10 days apart. But I'll check my bank account and give you the exact date. Thank you for your reply. Jan Petersen |

I am making this a sticky so we can keep an eye on problems during the yearly donation drive. Please post all problems here with regards to missing donations and stars. The following information to resolve problems quickly is your poster ID, donation confirmation number and what date it was made. Pluto will always be a planet to me. ![]() Seti Ambassador |

The donation site is set up for North America but it works fine for UK people if you do as I have done below. Usually when you donate by card you have to put exactly what the name on the card is. Not necessary here and it doesn't work with initials! Put full first and last names, not what appears on card Put address in address 1 Put town in address 2 Put county in city Set state to other or none Set Country to United Kingdom Put Post code in post code Tick friend of cal Tick/untick permission to publish Add any gift instructions You may need to re-add town into address 2 in card details I know it works because I just gave another $10!
