tried out 6.10.50 x64 on my lappy, and with time of day restriction set in the preferences it will suspend network activity at the specified time even if the activity setting is to always use network. worked fine up til 6.10.49 (which I'm running now).

I know, I know, sounds strange to set preferences and then override them, but thats the way I work.

not sure if x32 version does this as I didn't try it out.

edit: forgot to add, this is with Win7 home premium 64.

BOINC 6.1 to 6.10 Versions Change Log Thread

BOINC 6.10.51 released for testing for Macintosh

Unfortunately, we found a show-stopper bug in 6.10.50: the "Network
activity always available" item in the Advanced menu did not work.
This release fixes that.

I've released the mac build for immediate alpha testing. I expect
Rom will do the same for the other platforms shortly.
Thanks for your help!

Cheers,

Now also available for the other platforms. May I remind people that this is a development version, not the recommended one. So you have to expect bugs.
