What does Communications Deferred mean

Guessing: cpdn, and you keep clicking Update

cpdn has a 1 hour back off timer, which gets reset each time the project gets contacted.
This is to stop people from crashing a task, getting another one, crashing it, etc, instead of fixing the problem with their computer.

*********************

why isn't my project running

cpdn doesn't have any work at the moment. All of the recent 11,775 workunits have been sent out, and a lot have now finished.

Thank you very much for your reply. No, didn't hit update, too afraid to do something wrong! Your explanation about all work units being completed makes sense.

Thanks again.

Just wanted to add, been crunching since before 2010, and lost my original account, so all my credit (which I'm very proud of) is gone. Made a second account but made a new computer and lost my pw, and can't receive a pw reset at my email - linda@lindahartman.us. So I made a 3d account with my gmail account. So I was really hoping to be able to do some work for climate prediction, which I believe is of utmost importance. Thus my question. IMHO everyone should be lending their computer to this important work.

thanks again.
