SETI@home - 2004-07-21 19:06:18 - Message from server: To participate in this project, you must use major version 4 of the BOINC core client. Your core client is major version 3.

Anyone know where number 4 can be had?

OK, I went to the Participate in SETI@Home link here: http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/ and scrolled down to upgrade your BOINC software to the latest version and hit that link. I installed the new 3.20 version, which appears to be what is called #4. Didn't help, as I still can't get new WU's, but I've got #4 now, I guess...

Can you tell me, if I uninstall version 3.19 will I lose credits or unprocessed WU's when upgrading to 3.20? (the WU's are very hard to get!)

Yes upgrade, all you need to do is shut BOINC down and install over the 3.19 program, do not unistall the 3.19 or you will lose all WUWUs that have been downloaded and are waiting to be processes...

This is a mistake. 4.01 is in Alpha testing. You don't want it, crash city. I have sent an email to the developers to inform them of the problem.
