So one of the following projects was causing the trouble: depspid, mindmodelling, gridfinity, harvard clean energy, WCG, and QCN.

Had work running for orbit@home and qcn.

Yes, but you're also attached to about every project that exists. ;-)

I've put my remaining rig on total NNT as I don't want to lose the Orbit task at 70% (545 hours running)

I do believe however that it is caused by an account file. I am attached to 37 projects, so it's going to be difficult to find out which one is causing it.

I have a diverse collection of CPUs (PowerPC G4 and single/dual CPU G5, various Pentium 3's and 4's, AMD64, Core 2 Duo, etc). These machines have various strengths and weaknesses, e.g., one might be unusually good or bad at floating point, others have various generations of SIMD instructions, different cache sizes, etc.

I'd really like to see each project provide a list of "preferred" and "non-preferred" CPUs to better help me decide which projects to run on which CPUs.

Has anything like this been done or proposed? Thanks.

Just added Einstein. Four tasks have been running for days, but the statistics graph only displays a point at the origin. Other graphs are fine (lhcathome, predictor). Fix?

I think the problem is that it's up to the people affected to report it and follow-through. I imagine that they're more embarassed that they fell for something like this.

It's basically been a glorified "phishing" attack -- i.e. if someone sets up a phony server that looks like, say, Barclays Bank, and emails a million people that their "Barclay Bank details need updating," and fools a few out of that million; you can't blame Barclay's Bank for it.
