1) Questions and Answers : Windows : Problems running under XP Limited Account type (Message 7565) Posted 14 Jul 2004 by Ellerbrok Post: Maybe you installed the BOINC Software into the "Program Files" directory? This directory is read-only for normal users. Only admin-peolpe are allowed to write here. This is another fine security measurement the old Billy Boy from Redmont tortures us with. Try to install BOINC to another directory. Like 'C:\\BOINC' or so. Just outside of the directories originally created and maintained by Windows. Best regards, Marcel Ellerbrok

2) Message boards : Number crunching : @Berkeley Team_STOP THE PROJECT at this time to much Error in all Things (Message 3377) Posted 2 Jul 2004 by Ellerbrok Post: Hallo everybody out there. I can't believe what I am reading here. Did ANYONE of you ever spend a thought or two before going over to be so destructive? Does anybody of you really think that sitting around and shouting things like: "Berkly sucks!" or "I am really pissed" will help to make this thing better? No! Everybody has the right to be upset, but there will never be a perfect software. Bugs are! And everybody knows this. BOINC / S@H is a very new experience to Berkley a very new experience to all of us. So we should not condemn it just because of some bugs. It's a great opportunity to support several distributed projects. So stop wailing and look forward to getting some work, or pack your crappy bag and leave. Leave! Go! Nobody will hold you back or even weep. Sorry about being so drastically but this thing needed to be said. Yours, Marcel Ellerbrok
