The new 6.4.6 never propagated to the Download page, people continued to download the corrupted version, so it was withdrawn. The developer will build a 6.4.7 and release that one instead. As to when that is, I don't know.

The links in my post still work, though.

I have a working 6.4.6 version installed and the .exe install file on my system. Is there a problem with continuing to run this version?

No, you can keep using it if no error were displayed during the install. The problem was that a copy with a corrupted installer was distributed to the mirror site, so some people could not download a good copy that would install.

i downloaded version 6.4.6 on three different machines, but all are Vista x64 and it works.
The 6.4.6 seems to be crunching slower on cuda but faster on astropulse.

BOINC does not do any of the actual crunching, it is a control application. It controls which tasks run when, and when to download more, and ...
