I just signed up to the new Seti@Home. When it downloaded the setiathome_3.08_windows_intelx86.exe and setiathome_3.08_windows_intelx86.pdb files both failed to validate. The error was something about invalid checksum. So far [1 hour later] it does not seem to have tried to re-download these files. Will it try again at some stage or do I have to delete them and get it to start again? Note: It has successfully downloaded 2 work units. |

I have reset the Seti@Home project and am waiting to see if the next download fixes the problem. |

I had this a lot. It took 4 or 5 tries to get the thing downloaded. But it finally worked. Nairb |

I have been getting this error since June 22. I reset the project 6 times each day. It continues to get the same error message. After each failure, I do an update and I get the Can't Update Code Signing Key. It looks like this project has failed and no cure is insight as there has never been anything posted to correct the problem. All my computers sit and wait for nothing. |
