I just updated to Boinc 6.10.6. I am connected to Climate Prediction and the World Community Grid. When I use Boinc Manager to check on task status I see that the status is reported as "suspended - user active" for both projects. Also, I cannot display graphics for either project.

Can someone explain what this means and is it an indication of Boinc problems?

Oh, after more than 24 hours there are no credits shown for either project on the statistics tab.

Thank you.

It means you are active, as in typing on the keyboard or moving of your mouse. You have set somewhere, either in some project preferences, or in the local advanced preferences to only do work when the computer is idle, when it's not in use.

To find where you have set that, please exit BOINC completely (BOINC Manager->Advanced view->File->Exit->check "Stop running science applications when exiting the Manager"->OK, then start it back up (Windows Start button->(All) Programs->BOINC->BOINC Manager). Now post all the messages from the Messages tab in an answer here.
