Hi, i have mistakenly created 2 accounts (in the first one I had spelt my e-mail address wrong!) I hit the back button re-typed my e-mail and then clicked to submit. I recieved an account key in my (correct) e-mail, and then proceeded to download the software. I configured my firewall to allow access, pasted my project URL nad account key but it is coming up as \'I have entered either an incorrect URL or password (account key) Help?!? how can i get myself out of this jam? (hoe I don\'t make such a hash of the project itself!!!)
hope someone cam help

You have a model listed on your Account page, so it\'s possible that you are running OK.
Have a look at the BOINC gui, in the Work tab. Does it show a model being processed?

Also, if it\'s connected OK, you will have: Connected to local host at the right hand side of the blue line at the bottom of the gui.

Your account key, (emailed to you), is not the same as a password.
You have to create your own password by going to your Account page and using either create or change password, depending on what you find there.
But if you are running OK, then it\'s not a problem.
