Please note the following Workunit page from http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=4514373. You may see that Host 21219 took no time, claimed no credit, and probably did not return a result. Yet he/she received 31.15 credits. I don't object to this; 21219 is probably a very nice person who deserves all kinds of extra credit. However, it is possibly an error as it does not appear that S@H received three similar results.

Take a look at http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/results.php?hostid=21219&offset=240 - this same guy has received a whole bunch of 'freebies' according to that page. A couple of pages further in to his results they're showing up as normal - I wonder where the error is that caused this one..?

Im not sure on this but i belive i have seen this question somewhere before,and it could be because 21219 is using a self compiled sah and/or BOINC.
