1) Message boards : BOINC client : BOINC-package as a zip or... (Message 8033) Posted 6 Feb 2007 by ikarus1969 Post: @Marky-UK, @Ageless: Thank you both for replying! I have given the /a-switch a try and it worked: it created 2 folders, [program files] and [Windows] and the installer file BOINC.msi i then stopped version 5.4.11 which was running, copied the content of [program files]\\[BOINC] into the folder of the 5.4.11 version (with the 'overwrite existing files'-option) and startet the BOINC-Manager. After the benchmarks all projects where continueing (?-how do i write this; sorry for my poor english) where i stopped them before installing version 5.8.8! Everything worked fine, thanks to you both and your help - Thank you again!!! kind regards, Reinhart / ikarus1969

(Message 7988) Posted 5 Feb 2007 by ikarus1969 Post: ...with the screensaver as an optional goodie to avoid the necessity of an administrator account when installing. That's what i really would appreciate. Am i right that an administrator account is only needed because the screensaver should be copied to the system-directory? Oh, yes, i'm talking about the windows-version... what do you out there think about this (especially the people responsible for creatig a new version)? Was this issue discussed elsewhere? Are there any reasons for an administrator account?

3) Message boards : Web interfaces : Project-Information as RSS (Message 7497) Posted 15 Jan 2007 by ikarus1969 Post: As a beginner in using the XMLHttpRequest-JavaScript-Object i wonder where i can find information about if and in which form each project is publishing data as an RSS-Feed. Currently i only know the Link [url]http://boinc.netsoft-online.com/get_user.php?cpid=[your cpid]&xml=1"[/url] where you provide your cpid and get data about all projects. Are there any other ressources available? Are there project-specific links which maybe share the same form so you only change the project-url? Any hints appreciated! regards, ikarus1969
