When you activated your account, you should have got an e-mail. In this e-mail, you find the URL to attach to, being http://setiathome.berkeley.edu
together with your password.

When opening the Boinc GUI, go to "settings" "attach to project" and fill in the URL and your password. Once this is done, the rest should come without problem:
- downloading the S@H Application and other files needed for crunching and screensaver
- downloading WU's.

Have also a look a the Boinc Manual.

Read the News at the homepage
Have a look at the Technical News
Look if your question is not answered at the Boinc Wiki

Best greetings, Thierry
