It accepts the upload, then attempts to connect with the server again, gives me a data error and dumps the program. Double click on the antenna icon again, and it attempts to download again, but dumps me with the same data error message. Finally, after trying it numerous times, I get a new download but the upload was never credited. Four uploads now, and only 1 credit. So, I have taken to putting the whole working folder into a TEMP folder prior to connecting. Still trying to send up a fifth upload, but no luck yet. Reloaded the working folder from the TEMP one several times and attempted to upload/download again, always with the same results so far. Using two machines, set up differently and each gives the same symptoms. Guess I need to try it at midnight or so. } . . . } For the number of work units available, they've been recording 35 } GB/day since either 30.10.1998 or 20.11.1998 (both dates appear in two } different places on their site).

It's a wonder anyone can get into it, ever. Wf
