Do you remember your old username and password? I would think that they would still be valid. :)

On the login page, there should be a "Forgot password?" link, I used that to recover my account recently ;)
I searched www.boincstats.com but didn't see you listed :-/

BOINC is a client to combine a ton of distributed computing projects, seti@home being one of them.

Eaglescouter would have to confirm this but IIRC the Classic SETI numbers do not transfer to BOINC SETI.
BOINC is VERY easy to install and run, just follow the instructions: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/
After you get BOINC installed and running then upgrade to the optimized apps:

If you have any questions at all about installation just give a holler ... :)

Im not eagle, but I can confirm they do not cross over. They are entirely seperate from BOINC credit. They still show up on your account, and on the certificate if you want to print one out. Other than that.. :(

I think they made the data that much harder to crunch, my Opty 248's are taking 2.5 to 3 hrs per unit.
