I haven't run SETI@home for quite a while, and just started again a few days ago. This morning, I noticed there were some really old computers on my account, and since I no longer have them, I deleted them.

I'm thinking I may have deleted a BUNCH of work credited to my account.

1. Am I right?

and

2. Can I get it back?

If they were unprocessed tasks then you have said goodbye to them. But don't worry, someone else will pick them up and process them.

Completed and validated tasks are removed from sight after 24 hours, but remain (hidden) on the SETI servers for ever.

Thanks, Bob. Good enough. I had a fairly high credit years ago, just piddlin' now, I guess, but I still didn't want them to go away.
