The CPDN server appeared to be unavailable for a wee while yesterday. I could not even view the web page at one point.

Maybe it was just bad timing?

(Be careful when I say "Yesterday" as I am 16 hours ahead of US EDT.)

I have 4.05 running S@H and CP with no problems on XP Home SP2. Both projects share time just like they should according to my Preferences.

Ian, like others have mentioned. I, as well, was having no problems with BOINC under XP SP1, but began having problems with it after installing SP2 (along with problems on MANY other pieces of software). After spending nearly an entire day (wasting is more like it) trying to chase down fixes for SP2, I had to uninstall it and thankfully BOINC and everything else began running fine again.

Thanks alot to everyone who posted. I finally got climpred workin fine on my laptop but its still buggin on my main pc, but seti is most important so i dont mind.

Thanks again.
