Message 16809 - Posted: 24 Apr 2008, 0:32:20 UTC

I have uninstalled the latest verion of BOINC for windows, installed a previous version, and installed the latest one again in the directory BOINC2. I continue to get the error "The URL you supplied is not that of a boinc-based project". It does this for all projects I try to connect to.

Any ideas? Here is the text of my Messages:

4/23/2008 was Wednesday.
Wednesday is SETI's day off for maintenance.

Einstein may also have been down at the time you tried to access it.

Actually, SETI's maintenance was switched to Tuesdays a while back, so that's not it.

SInce there was some maintenenance talk I tried again today and no go. Note that i tried to connect to a bunch of different ones with no success, so I doubt they are all down at the same time :)

I also played with my proxy settings and it looks like to me I am making it through the proxy, different errors get shown when I am unable to connect. It feels like a configuration item, but I cant digure out what!
