Captain_SpankMunki [Keeper & Former ACE] Thanking <Diety of choice> for the joy of Goo.

I've had problems connecting to the server recently or viewing status pages. I think they are doing some upgrade work on the servers.

It's unlikely that you have lost the information. If you are connecting over a modem don't forget the unit is 350kB and may take a while to download. Do you have any firewall software preventing SETI from talking to the outside world?

Liam.

Hi Liam

No there is no firewall.
I was connected to the web ok, It told me it could not connect.
Then the full status bar disipeard.
I will try again when I can connect to the phone.

Connected ok last night.

I do not think any data from the last processing was sent, to quick.
I have had a lot of networking problems, recently, so I thought it was me.

Thanks
