How are you guys able to download more than one Wu at a time and get Seti to process them all in a row then send back to the server. I would rather do it that way so i don't have to get up in the middle of the night to check on my WU to see if it is finished and transmit via my modem (AOL account).
I use SETIStash to cache WUs. It can cache up to 10 before transmitting.
You can get it here (http://www.hereintown.net/~wink/setistash.html).
There are others that do this but this was the one I liked the most.

From what i've read in the instructions for installing SetiStash it seems it wasn't meant to run with SetiSpy. Yes Or No?
I use Seti driver with Seti Spy - they're actually designed to work together.

Here you go this is what most of us use. Here are the direct downloads you need Windows CLC (ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/setiathome/setiathome-3.03.i386-winnt-cmdline.exe), Seti Spy (http://pages.tca.net/roelof/setispy/SetiSpy.exe), Seti Driver (http://www.wakeassoc.com/setidriver/SETIDriver.zip) and here are the instructions (http://overclockers.ws/seti/Instr1.htm) you need to follow to get them up and running.
Driver works really well, and if you are currently using the GUI version (screensaver) when you install driver and spy you will shave several hours off your average. Mine went from about 12 to 8 hours
After installation all you have to do is set cache size to whatever you want. I use dialup also so i set mine at 5...takes about 15 to 20 mins. to transmit 5 WU's and if i'm not home for a few days i have 5 WU's completed when i get home
