Quite simple, I loved the old-fashioned statistics that let me compare what I did to others from my country or from all over the world. That was one of the main incentives for me to run Seti. Since you've replaced it with BOINC, all of this is gone, and there's no incentive for me to use it any more. I've plenty of available computer power, but won't take the time to run it unless I have a perception of getting something I find interesting in return.
8:57 PM UTC, October 11 2006

11:53 PM UTC, October 11 2006
My computer was running slow. I eliminated all unnecessary processes.
11:55 PM UTC, October 11 2006
I love the Seti project and would continue to do it for the rest of my life, but frankly when you switched to the new BOINC software, I switched right to it, it had nothing but issues on every computer I installed it on and it would sit most of the time not able to process because it just stops for no apparent reason so I went back to the old seti@home software. I continued to use that up until the very last day then went back to the BOINC software (the latest version downloaded from your site I might add) and the same issues. It spent a vast majority of the time doing nothing, and I noticed it had communication problems getting work units back from your server along with a rash of other problems with every system it ran on and I had 11 systems with various different software running it, and some systems all that was on them was windows XP professional and seti, they were dedicated machines just for seti. You need to get rid of that software and have a dedicated package. I have no interest in processing for any other cause, just Seti. Provide me with a means to do it, and you got me back 24 hours a day 7 days a week with 11 machines all over 3ghz in speed.
11:57 PM UTC, October 11 2006
And you didn't transfer my old account units. Years of work lost.

2:00 AM UTC, October 12 2006
damn thing was up and down all the time, which was troublesome because i used the computer to heat my room.....
2:03 AM UTC, October 12 2006
work would often not download
2:18 AM UTC, October 12 2006
no results, stats on progress lacking
2:19 AM UTC, October 12 2006
old interface was easy and i could run it on servers. self contained exe. now its a windows program. cant do that. please give us command line back
2:19 AM UTC, October 12 2006
seti@home before BOINC was fun, with BOINC it was just crap
2:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
boinc didn't make me feel as safe as the older client.
2:51 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It worked the CPU hard and made the fan run all the time...too much heat and noise
2:52 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I preferred the older format
2:59 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I thought it had been shutdown for good. I contributed 175,025 units by that time
3:00 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Contribution to global warming from the millions of CPUs running BOINC and other distributed software. A supercomputer built from highly efficient multicore processors would be better, if you could secure sponsorship of this sort.
3:01 AM UTC, October 12 2006
greenhouse gases created by these projects is just not worth the end result
3:02 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It cooks my PC during the summer
3:03 AM UTC, October 12 2006
You could keep your receiving computers online to receive my data
3:05 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It stopped working, wouldnt attach to a project anymore, and I couldnt get it to operate again.
3:05 AM UTC, October 12 2006
CPU Temp was too high
3:07 AM UTC, October 12 2006
all my computers
3:19 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It does not work on most of my computers. They are not on the net, and took part in Seti@Home1 through SetiQueue. There is no setiqueue for boinc so I had to switch to a non-BOINC project :-(
3:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
problems getting work units
3:32 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I hated the software
3:35 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It consumed cpu and you left out all the flashy/fun ideas that werre in the original seti@home; I switched back to the original for a while, but then you stopped even that - I hated BOINC and won't go back to it. If you reintroduce the original, then I would do it again. I was very active with many computers using it.
3:46 AM UTC, October 12 2006
hasn't produced anything worthwhile
3:50 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I preferred the old SETI setup and enjoyed seeing my position improve within my group as I returned more units to SETI.
3:53 AM UTC, October 12 2006
work units are too large
3:57 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I hate the software and the fact that my previous contributions were cast aside.
4:03 AM UTC, October 12 2006
the old seti program was easier to use
4:07 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It overloads my PC; you need to fix it so that the amount of resources can be controlled.
4:12 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Because it's too heavy and annoying to have running - the old cmd-line based tool was much better - also viewing results was better then
4:15 AM UTC, October 12 2006
SETI seemed to get bogged down
4:30 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Boinc system unreliable. Constantly had downtimes
4:30 AM UTC, October 12 2006
lab internet security and keeping units running was a mental bother. they would stop running for various reasons and it was just something else to worry about.
4:46 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I didnt like it, I like the Old Seti@home program better
4:52 AM UTC, October 12 2006
ich es auf meinem neuen Rechner vergessen habe zu installieren
4:54 AM UTC, October 12 2006
my new CPU is overclocked too much, 100% cpu use makes it too hot to run all the time.
4:54 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I preferred the stand-alone client
4:59 AM UTC, October 12 2006
The only machine I access needs to sleep :(
5:01 AM UTC, October 12 2006
folding at home
5:05 AM UTC, October 12 2006
setup and use was too user intensive versus the old seti
5:06 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It's too complicated, too resorce intensive, not user friendly, and just plain stupid in comparision to the pre boinc version. I ran the command line version for years and loved it. I just want it to run and forget about it. I could never get it install right in the first place. I had to set myself up[ as a server but couldn't connect. I love the seti program, i really do, but I just refuse to use this shitty software. That and it doesnt carry over my old workunits.
5:11 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It did not provide enough clear indication of its progress, its resource use, and the success or failure of each "work unit", especially relating to the BBC Climate project
5:20 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Had a HD crash and didn't load it on the new computer.
5:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
"громоздкий" клиент на базе BONIC
5:45 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't like the extra overhead, and the project linkage is problematic.
5:47 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the BOINC interface or the replacement to the old, straightforward SETI screensaver.
5:48 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't remember why, but BOINC was the reason I gave up on SETI. Something didn't work the same, or I couldn't figure it out. Whatever...HATED IT.
5:49 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Switch computer and did not reload yet
5:54 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't enjoy the interface. I liked the old SETI program much better, more entertaining to participate in.
5:55 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I got sent to Iraq.
5:58 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It takes up too much hard drive and memory space compared to Seti@home
6:00 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Notebook Lüfter fahren zu hoch erzeugen mächtig Geräusche
6:03 AM UTC, October 12 2006
setiathome.exe was small and smart, did run in background on win and linux. BOINC is too heavy, to complicated (in comparison to seti)
6:05 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it sucks
6:11 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Bad project support for AMD64
6:14 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the program and I did not get credit for all the units I already had
6:16 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Was not turning itself off when I was doing other things and I needed the resources
6:19 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Original S@h client stopped taking WUs, didn't know how to run BOINC
6:20 AM UTC, October 12 2006
too high system demands
6:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It has some problems starting to work o unit
6:38 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I just want to participate in seti@home and after about 6 months of using BOINC I grew fed up because of the overhead.
6:40 AM UTC, October 12 2006

6:43 AM UTC, October 12 2006
es nach wie vor nur je ein Paket abholt und nicht mehrere was bei serverausfällen auf Seti Seite dazu führt das mein rechner nutzlos rumsteht
6:49 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't like the BOINC interface or the way it counted workunits completed.
6:53 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I didnt like the new interface and had trouble getting new work loads from the server.

7:09 AM UTC, October 12 2006
vor längerer Zeit per eMail das Ende des Seti Projektes mitgeteilt wurde
7:12 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Software seemed unreliable
7:18 AM UTC, October 12 2006
PC can't complete a WU until after the deadline's passed.
7:24 AM UTC, October 12 2006
too intrusive
7:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Die Bewertung der abgearbeiteten Working units war unter Seti at home ein schöner Wettkampf gegen sich und andere. Dies ist in Boinc nur noch über diese Credits möglich. Das hat mich dazugebracht einfach damit aufzuhören. Ich hatte über 45000 WU bei Seti at home und dies ist einfach alles weg. Wenn man so mit dem umgeht, was in der Vergangenheit war, dann sollte man sich nicht wundern, wenn Leute kein Interesse mehr an freiwilligem Engagement haben. Zu so einem BOINC werde ich bestimmt nicht mehr zurückkehren.
7:27 AM UTC, October 12 2006
i prefer old seti@home software
7:35 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Frequent hardware reconfiguration
7:37 AM UTC, October 12 2006
used too many resources / processing power
7:41 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Emigrated, PC is onroute.
7:41 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Loss of console only clients
7:42 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I joined two projects and the other (Predictor at Home) seems to have higher priority, being preemptive in relation with Seti!!!
7:48 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It can't be used for non-networked computers
7:59 AM UTC, October 12 2006
my computer overheated
8:02 AM UTC, October 12 2006
not user friendly, unclear
8:04 AM UTC, October 12 2006
The fun competitiveness disappeared... The original SETI application let you see how you were doing compared to others . this was fun and made me see how many PC I could get to run SETI to advance in the statistics.
8:04 AM UTC, October 12 2006
if units take to long i dont get credit for doing them
8:04 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It made my computer overheat. Nice job, guys.
8:05 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I liked the previous client better
8:06 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Too complex and bloated, the classic single binary that ran in silently in the background was better
8:06 AM UTC, October 12 2006
The old CETI@home was better
8:06 AM UTC, October 12 2006

8:16 AM UTC, October 12 2006

8:22 AM UTC, October 12 2006
and I tried the BBC weather - but NOINC is the problem
8:23 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Compared to the original SETI application I hate BOINC
8:24 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it had been hot days at my house, and waiting to colder days.
8:24 AM UTC, October 12 2006
After years (since 1999) and many hundreds (approx 3500?) of result submissions, I quit because: 1) BOINC took too much control over my computer and didn't let me be in charge AND 2) I felt that I was being "used" and taken for granted by the Seti@home organization/staff, who never once answered my legitimate e-mail. I might consider resuming again, but it would require personal communication from Seti@home.
8:26 AM UTC, October 12 2006
worried about environmental issues
8:35 AM UTC, October 12 2006
es nicht mehr möglich war die Suche (SETI) offline durchzuführen.
8:36 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it was awkward to run on multiple Pc's
8:38 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Became bloatware vs the old version
8:40 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Updating it was complex and prone to inexplicable errors. Whoever maintaining it wasn't doing the project any favours.
8:43 AM UTC, October 12 2006

8:56 AM UTC, October 12 2006
SETI would not run
9:07 AM UTC, October 12 2006
the previous seti@home client was better
9:09 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Poor interface and graphics
9:22 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I got fedup and didn't have the time to manually update/configure the client software - I prefer the install once and forget its there type installation

mir die alte SETI Software besser gefiel
9:43 AM UTC, October 12 2006
users of machines on which I was running BOINC complained about CPU activity
9:56 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I installed a later version and it wouldn't work
10:10 AM UTC, October 12 2006
no credit for previous SETI-at-home work, despite promises to the contrary. This was dishonest.
10:14 AM UTC, October 12 2006
the client does'nt work good
10:17 AM UTC, October 12 2006
The software was substandard and stupid

wasn't convinced that "drug" projects were not just profitable to companies.
10:51 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I ran the command line version - and you stopped accepting these. I managed around 10000 units on the old version.
10:54 AM UTC, October 12 2006
the screen saver was so ugly
10:54 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Pain in the ass
11:00 AM UTC, October 12 2006
It wasn't reconnecting by itself to download new data and wasn't starting by itself like the old program and it was crashing also. It looked cheap and too complicated.
11:02 AM UTC, October 12 2006
switched to laptop
11:08 AM UTC, October 12 2006
switched to Rosetta@home
11:09 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it cant work from behind the proxy :((
11:09 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it does not run on AIX
11:11 AM UTC, October 12 2006
i only have a laptop now and i like it to be cool and quiet
11:14 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I use the server, and the only client possible is the command line and with boinc switch this client CMD don't exist...
11:21 AM UTC, October 12 2006
didn't like the boinc garbage-preferred the original command line tool-think the move was a mistake
11:22 AM UTC, October 12 2006
didn't like the boinc garbage-preferred the original command line tool-think the move was a mistake
11:30 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I dont usually run it in summer because my room is cooler without it running, also when I stop I forget to restart
11:30 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Decided to complete the old SETI and not to participate in similar projects. Main reason electricity, I'm a still a student and sometimes have money problems.
11:32 AM UTC, October 12 2006
it wont connect properly and it crashes on of my computers
11:36 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Could not figure out how to run multiple projects at once
11:36 AM UTC, October 12 2006
Used a command line alternative that stopped working after project completely moved over to boinc.
11:37 AM UTC, October 12 2006

truly crappy interface - the old seti was fine
11:46 AM UTC, October 12 2006
I switched to using laptops and Seti used too much memory.

11:57 AM UTC, October 12 2006
The old seti user interface/system was better
11:58 AM UTC, October 12 2006
and I had to reformat my HD
12:00 PM UTC, October 12 2006
didn't like it compared to command line version from before. I was also concerned about security.
12:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
There is now a deadline for submission of data and I'm usually past the deadline, so I just gave up.
12:08 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't like the stats, I prefer the old method
12:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006

12:30 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It would not connect, several times, then it crashed, old seti client worked perfect
12:36 PM UTC, October 12 2006
overly complicated- old client much easier to use and more visually appealing
12:38 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the software
12:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
After running for a short time, it totally locks up my PC. No interaction is possible and a powerdown and restart is needed
12:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
There isn't an iSeries client
12:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Having the cpu running 100% means the fan runs at full speed all the time which is too noisy.

boinc is simply too much of a hastle. Just give me a simple command line program any day for this kind of stuff.
12:58 PM UTC, October 12 2006
NOT user-friendly like the original project. The original project was FUN. BONIC is a bother.
1:00 PM UTC, October 12 2006
After 4 weeks, it showed almost NO progress compared with traditional SETI@Home
1:01 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it crashed
1:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
This is a typical example of fixing something that was not broken. Now it is unusable by many.
1:06 PM UTC, October 12 2006
don't like the new program. wanted to keep the old one.
1:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC defeats me. Won't connect half the time
1:10 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC would not make timely connections to SETI
1:11 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I was frustrated with BOINC, because I couldn't stop and stop it easily
1:11 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it was too annoying. prefered the old quick running software used previously
1:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the system requirements. I was able to use older, tired machines to do the Seti and use UNIX.
1:14 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I couldn't remotely install it on other computers.
1:15 PM UTC, October 12 2006
didn't transfer my units
1:17 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It's not supported on Apple Computers!!!
1:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
No workunits arrived
1:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It conflicted with other applications, causing applications to lock up & my Toshiba laptop to crash.

Old SETI client was better, this doesn't even look like I'm running for SETI anymore.

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE IT UP AND RUNNING ON MY COMPUTER SO IF YOU CAN HELP ME I SURE WOULD APPREATE IT.

The screen-saver prevents Timbuktu from working on my Mac. Have you fixed this?
1:42 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC dosn't support netbsd (the old seti@home client did)
1:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
lack of cool graphics, hard to tell if it was actually doing anything
1:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I couldn't configure BOINC to run only at night. I had the old version configured so that I would start and stop the service at certain times of the day. I can't do this with BOINC.
1:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006

1:54 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I use to use seti buffer to buffer projects. BOINC did not allow me to buffer more then 2-4 projects at a time. My computers dont have internet access all the time and with only 6-8 hours of work they went with no work for days. I am using CPDN because it runs for months with out internet connection.
1:56 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Way too much hassle to configure compared to the previous Seti version, just not going to spend that much time working out why it keeps breaking

2:01 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It ran all the time solwing down other applications making my work take longer. If it ran as a screen saver only, I would be glad to use it!!!
2:01 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I ran the SETI@Home command-line application until it was phased out, but have not run BOINC more than briefly because there is no way to run it unless a user is logged-in
2:02 PM UTC, October 12 2006
re-installed o/s, but didnt re-install due to the hassle of registering each project, and my laptop would strain
2:05 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The program was not intuitive; it required more maintenance than what I would expect for a program running in the background.

2:20 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Too busy at work.
2:24 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't like the BOINC application. Bring back the original.
2:27 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Ich traue der Sofware nicht
2:28 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Just didn't like it
2:30 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The old seti was a nice clean, easy to use app. Running under boinc introduces a layer of obfuscation and doesn't add anything to the goal of harvesting my CPU cycles. I appreciate all the neat gee-whiz statistics that are generated, but this came at the cost of such things as idling my computer while attempting to send or receive results. Personally, I believe the seti kernel code should be made available in two formats -- the old executable and the executable for boinc. Ah well, I will give boinc a go again, perhaps the issues have been resolved in the last year.
2:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC is crappy software; the older software was way better.
2:39 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Couldn't attach to many projects; No cool statistics like the old SETI
2:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I liked the old SETI better.
2:43 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didnt get recognition for previous work
2:44 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It did not have the appeal of the old SETI software
2:45 PM UTC, October 12 2006
CPDN
2:46 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Didn't like the new software, it slowed my pc down too much
2:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
operation was not easily scripted to run from cron or at system startup (unix type systems)
2:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
could not see progress of work units completed, preferred seti
2:54 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't like it.
2:59 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I'm a long-standing member of BOINC and Seti@Home before that, but after installing a new mobo that didn't have a good ventilation system, my computer can no longer run BOINC without overheating. Until I solve this problem, I'm out of the game....
3:01 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Was too "in your face" compared to the old SETI client
3:02 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC is way too much of a hassle. I liked the old approach: Simply place a binary in some directory, execute it and forget about. No GUI, no remote administration, no hassle.
3:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
There was no page that told me how I was doing compared to others ..
3:05 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I prefer a single binary for each project I support
3:06 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i didnt like it as much as the old way.
3:06 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Intrusive, constantly requiring attention
3:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
many lockups
3:08 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The work units were too large, i didn't feel like I was getting anywhere.
3:10 PM UTC, October 12 2006
your servers down too much
3:12 PM UTC, October 12 2006
changed positions, and computer admin rights are locked out. Old SETI didn't require admin rights for installation (at work)
3:12 PM UTC, October 12 2006
security concerns
3:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
boinc only operated about 3/4 of the time. the rest was used waiting to up or down load data. Infrequently it caused my computer to operate slowly.
3:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I hated the pc interface. Old one was much better.
3:17 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I switched to Einstein because SETI was always down, not sending work units, or having other computer or admin problims. Since switching to Einstein I have NEVER been down or lost work units and it seems to have a more realistic goal.
3:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It's been quite some time since I gave up on it so I don't remember all the probelms but among other things, I use software to instantly start my screensaver but BOINC STILL wouldn't start until after it waited the preset time for inactivity. If it was set to be the screensaver why didn't it work as one?!?! The original SETI@Home software ran when I wanted it to and only when I wanted it to. BOINC wasn't like that. :-(
3:20 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I got raped by a BOINC project and this was not deemed important by Berkeley
3:28 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It lost work done after shutting down Windows without shutting it first (still true?). I also liked the stats displayed on the classic version better. Also wondering why there has been NO apparent results after so many millions of hours of computing... how valid was the approach? Suggest regular communiques to keep up interest... Feel that it was taken for granted that people would donate machine time without a positive feedback loop.
3:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it sucked in general as well
3:32 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I like to see seti but with boinc the screensafer but earlier seti was better
3:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Had to reload windows and never re-downloaded SETI
3:36 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Poor credit system compared to old Seti@Home
3:39 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It stopped working and nothing I did would fix it, I want to try again. I will reload the client. I wasn't real happy with the interface, not very USER-friendly, maybe Scientist friendly, but not user-friendly...
3:39 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the screensaver worked badly
3:45 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The "screen saver" damaged my 17 inch CRT monitor
3:45 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Era muy impersonal
3:47 PM UTC, October 12 2006
CPU running at 100% - You provide no help to resolve the issue

3:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i got tired of begging for a work unit
3:49 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I'd prefer a dirt-simple client; too much clicking to get projects suspended
3:58 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it took more effort to manage
3:59 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the boinc software I ran the command line version of seti originally and it was much better.
4:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Would not autostart, would not attach to projects reliably, general nuisance to run, when I tried to ask for help on your forums, I was answered by people who were condescending, insulting, and generally unpleasant
4:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
inconsistently worked; wouldn't run all the timeas desired
4:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Beim Rechnen am Laptop Ergebnisse durch Offlinezeiten "verloren" habe
4:12 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I have been away from home for several months.
4:14 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't like the feel of SETI after it switched to BOINC, lost most of the credits I'd built up after years of running SETI.
4:17 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Constant problems connecting to the Seti servers. The old software was better.
4:29 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the old program of setie was way easyer to use!!
4:30 PM UTC, October 12 2006
My computer had to be part of your network in order for it boinc to even run. bring back the old seti that ran without a connection then hooked up for the brief time it took to upload and download the next work unit.
4:35 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i am on dial up, due to that, downloading new units took too long/ same with uploading finished units
4:47 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Was when you was moving over to BOINC failed connections etc and always down.
4:49 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I hate it, much preferred the original Seti software
4:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I do not like it
4:51 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Aggrevated at not being able to get WUs from Chess960
4:54 PM UTC, October 12 2006
had problems running it on other computers
4:55 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It never ran properly
4:56 PM UTC, October 12 2006
updating client wasn't easy/automatic - server wasn't always available
4:57 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Cheating in stats made me mad
4:57 PM UTC, October 12 2006
didn't work as easy as old seti
4:58 PM UTC, October 12 2006
When first released, it literally made seti@home "unfun".
5:05 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Get rid of Boinc, it's poorly implemented
5:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't have the time to investigate these (BOINC) problems. Had no problem with original SETI@home.
5:12 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Not enough feedback from software.
5:12 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I was unable to log on to my account information and could not find a link to get help. I tried using the account key but it kept taking me back to the log-on page. The resulting merry-go-round simply frustrated me. This questionaire is the first thing that has given me any hope of contact with a real person.
5:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i got confused when using seti and einstein simultaneously
5:15 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It sucked! It was inflexible.
5:27 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Bonic is over clocking my CPU and overheating the system
5:28 PM UTC, October 12 2006
mir BOINC suspekt ist und ich kein Interesse daran habe, meinen strom ggf für irgendwelche undurchschaubaren evtl sogar kommerziellen interessen zu verschwenden
5:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like Boinc and will not use it.
5:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Lost fast internet connection
5:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
couldn't keep track of my scores. when I had to upgrade, it was no longer fun to use.

Folding@Home
5:34 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I MUCH prefered the old project.. and I was In the top 1% of the world.. and all that work didnt count towards the new seti project. I feel as if I lost all my standing PLUS.. the old screensaver was actually useful as I have used a spectrum analizer on RF radio repair.. the new screensaver is a " pretty toy" and is useless as an actual spectrum tool
5:38 PM UTC, October 12 2006
web tracking didn't show my pre-boinc work units
5:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
das alte Seti war optisch schön und irgedwie cool. Boink ist HÄSSLICH und uncool!
5:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not receive credit for previoiusly submitted work.
5:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It would not run correctly, nowhere near as good as the Seti program. I couldn't get jobs or send results and after trying several times over several weeks I uninstalled it.
5:42 PM UTC, October 12 2006
too many projects that i didn't care of and too many options related to network security
5:42 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The BOINC interface is not as interesting as the old SETI interface and my students were not interested once you went to BOINC.
5:46 PM UTC, October 12 2006
A bit complicated, and my desktop machine blew up.
5:46 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Government does not allow this anymore. I'm a VA employee
5:52 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I just wanted to run setiathome and see my stats. But then that stopped. I stayed loyal, but felt the project let me down :(
5:56 PM UTC, October 12 2006
costs me around 50€ a year per CPU !
5:59 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The new program didn't look as cool
6:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
That great homepage you guys had before isnt so great and fun anymore
6:09 PM UTC, October 12 2006
boinc was too flakey
6:09 PM UTC, October 12 2006
did not like the interface
6:09 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the computing broke down too many times - this did not ever happen on the "old" seti@home
6:10 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The lack of feed back was a real disincentive. I liked seeing how I was doing against everyone else on a daily basis. The price of power (you know running this 24x7 is not free) was not worth it.
6:11 PM UTC, October 12 2006
One of the advantages of the classic was a clearer image of my rank within the SETI Community.
6:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
when the switch was made from Seti@home we all lost all the credits from the years of work I did 24/7...I was in the top 1% of seti users and that just evaporated when the switch was made so I never ran the new version.
6:15 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the bonic program casue my computer crash at screen saver mode.
6:15 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I lost my thousands of previous unit
6:21 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It caused my computer to freeze and crash
6:24 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i liked the interface better before boinc.. much simpler and easier to use
6:28 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it consumes more processor capacity than expected
6:29 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Also, the BOINC software is a piece of crap.
6:30 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It never seemed to connect and it did not seem to provide any feedback like the old system.
6:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I ran dial-up at that time. BOINC was appears to be made for those using hi-speed, continous Internet conectivity.
6:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Slow computer
6:34 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I had to power off after hours due to security reasons
6:34 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC slowed my computer down
6:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Ahora me pide tener internet a fuerzas cuando antes podia trabajar en casa y enviar datos en el cybercafe.
6:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BIONC ruined SETI... too complicated and irrelevant screens
6:47 PM UTC, October 12 2006
es zu viel persoenliche Informationen ins Internet geschickt hat, ausserdem zwischen den Projekten nur Mist gebaut hat
6:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
In most ways it was a clear step backward from SETI@home classic in that the screen saver barly worked... if a all.
6:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Die Credits vom alten Seti@Home verfallen sind. Habe definitiv kein Interesse mehr.
6:49 PM UTC, October 12 2006
connectivity troubles switching from classic to boinc
7:01 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it didn't work right, too many server problems
7:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Because the seti@home switch to BIONIC lost old scores
7:06 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I was unable to retrieve my %ile standing
7:08 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Couldn't use it as a console application anymore
7:09 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Part of my interest (selfish as it is) was moving up the ranks, and I seemed to have reached a plateau. I'm going to start again because I do want to contribute to the results. You made me feel guilty with your recent appeal to start again :-)
7:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Rude staff running BOINC, BOINC not ready for transition, and servers always down. I also feel that I did not get proper credit for work done.
7:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Boss disapproved...
7:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Power supply went bad in my computer.
7:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
BOINC was terrible. Didn't download any work units and caused nothing but problems. Get ride of it and I'll come back. Also it tried to setup other projects without asking me. Screw that.
7:24 PM UTC, October 12 2006

7:33 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't like the interface.
7:34 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Seti has sucked ever since you switch to Boinic
7:39 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i don`t have now own computer, sorry
7:42 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Boinc does not easily run logged out on Macs. Had to write unix scripts myself and they would occasionally freeze logins
7:46 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The old software before BOINC ran in the background without problems, the New BOINC would not work without having problems,ie no work, unable to connect, all the problems seemed to be at the other end, every other day there was news of something failing, back up systems being maintained, power outages, the list was endless, day after day, month after month. You ask the public for computing power which is ok when everything works.. when it keeps on failing because of endless different reasons the public very soon loose interest as I did.. I will reinstall the latest software and run it, if it continues to function without problems I will let it run..if I have to keep checking on it and find it is failing because of reasons beyond my control i will remove it for the final time.
7:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it started to work, but then stopped
7:52 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I preferred the feedback from the original SETI s/w
7:53 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Changed computers, forgot to reinstall
7:53 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I couldn't figure out how to use it
7:54 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I don't like stuff running in the foreground.
7:55 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Hard to configure, resource hog
7:58 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I miss the old screen saver... results are one thing... but the old screen saver/app was cool and it gave the appearance I was doing something "good' for mankind. BOINC it too hard, it's a hassle, and I don't get the screensaver......... Results aren't everything if you're not an astrophysisist........ bob_toth@stagingconnections.com
8:05 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It didn't work at all well with Windows Power Mgtmt
8:11 PM UTC, October 12 2006
hardware problems, need to replace motherboard
8:11 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the computer fan was on all the time
8:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
caused a few issues with win XP_64bit edition
8:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It took too much CPU to run while I did other work and I don't want to leave my computer on at night anymore.
8:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
ud agent
8:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
the old version of seti is better
8:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The program accessed the internet at times not connected to the act of sending or receiving project data. Call me paranoid but this behavior seemed more like spyware than scientific research.
8:20 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I liked the old setiathome client much better
8:23 PM UTC, October 12 2006
hungry for internet, bugged me all day and was complicated to download and upload units. OLD SETI WAS WAY BETTER!
8:26 PM UTC, October 12 2006
je préférais l'ancien programme, désolé
8:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Had problems minmizing it on bootup-multiple PC's. Like the original Seti interface better
8:35 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I switched the the cancer project at grid.org. I felt the cancer project was more important than SETI
8:43 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it just didnt work very well it wouldnt connect and dl work units and other things like that

I got a new emailadres and could not get my credits to my new account
8:56 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I really don't like BOINC, but LOVED the old Windows Seti@Home
8:57 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It took up more too much memory and had my computer crashing most nights
9:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didnt like the new software (boinc)
9:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
My SETI@Home Account credentials got mismached & I didn't want to make a new account
9:27 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i traded my MS Windows for an iMac
9:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
persistantly failed to connect for uploading completed work data
9:37 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It just didn't run well well with Mac OS X whereas the 'old' SETI screensaver worked a treat.
9:37 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I do not know what it is. When the Seti site changed & my software no longer worked, I could not get on to download anything new.
9:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
lack of statistical graphics and progress
9:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I HATED it!!! See "Comments"
9:41 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the new format (graphics). It just was not the old SETI
9:42 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It wasn't seti dedicated.
9:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I dont' understand the new credits, the seti classic was much better at awarding credits.
9:50 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Es hat zu viele Ressourcen verbraucht. weit mehr als die alte Software. War nicht so gut steuerbar.
9:52 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Preferred previous s/w to BOINC
10:02 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It always ran in the background and took up resources when I needed them. Bring back the screen saver only version!
10:13 PM UTC, October 12 2006
SETI Enhanced = Less Rewarding
10:15 PM UTC, October 12 2006
too intrusive - i prefer simple cmdline
10:18 PM UTC, October 12 2006
With 'old-style' Seti, you felt DIRECTLY involved - BOINC is one stepped removed and too esoteric. I meight go back but...
10:29 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It consumed too many resources on my systems and I was concerned about security
10:31 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I was switched TO BOINC and lost the simplicity of the original SETI@HOME
10:32 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I can not set it to only use 50% of the CPU, making the system to slow if I have it on.
10:37 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It took up too much CPU resources and was causing crashes/lockups of critical software
10:38 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Before BOINC, I had 12 computers running the SETI command-line client. Only 3 are BOINC capable. The command-line client was "lean and mean" and could be set up via batch file. BOINC is bloated and has to be "installed".
10:40 PM UTC, October 12 2006
It's wasn't as straight-forward as SETI
10:47 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I was becoming concerned with the safety of the downloads
10:48 PM UTC, October 12 2006
reinstalling is a pain
10:49 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it started to run two copies at the sme time. Could not shut it down. Whiped all traces off my system to freeup.
10:54 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Installation on network devices produced inconsistent results; it was weird compared to the simple SETI@Home product and not worth the effort. I recall it also seemed more intrusive
11:02 PM UTC, October 12 2006
The graphics on the screensaver are awful.
11:04 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I am waiting until I get a new computer with multiple processors. Mine is too slow now to run Boinc also.
11:07 PM UTC, October 12 2006
it is not working correctly
11:08 PM UTC, October 12 2006
Bionic said it didnt work half the time.
11:17 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I did not like the look of the new seti interface
11:19 PM UTC, October 12 2006
i hated boinc
11:47 PM UTC, October 12 2006
I didn't like the BONIC software
11:57 PM UTC, October 12 2006
all the attractive features of seti-at-home had been removed and I felt no personal involvement,no challenge to rise in the ranks, no attractive processing data,etc.etc

12:06 AM UTC, October 13 2006
The server never connected. You lost the competitve nature by not seeing where you were with respect to others and the number of data packets analized. I liked the original system way better.
12:10 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I think the GUI for SETI with BOINC is nowhere near as good as the original software.
12:17 AM UTC, October 13 2006
my primary computer is now a laptop and I don't want to run it 24/7
12:19 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Switched to Ubuntu linux and had forgotten to run the debian linux version
12:19 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I thought I was running it.
12:21 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I got tired of having to download every day. I found a program that would let me download enough packets so I would only have to up/download once a week. That worked GREAT. I had to get it again but never could make it work. It was just taking more time than I was willing to put in. If I could get software (that work's) I'd start back again. (and this was on dial-up, I have DSL now.)
12:31 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It Took too long to get work units downloaded & uploaded, If at all
12:33 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Sucked in many ways compared to original software
12:35 AM UTC, October 13 2006
it was totally different than the origonal seti experience, I hated it.
12:39 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Seti at home had too many participants
12:48 AM UTC, October 13 2006
no units would upload , kept geting server errors
12:52 AM UTC, October 13 2006
could not tell if it was actually doing anything
12:56 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It never uploaded results or downloaded new work units.
12:57 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I installed the BBC BOINC project and it shut off all other projects, so I removed it & never got around to reinstalling.
12:59 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Didn't like it.
1:02 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Kept locking up computer - couldn't tell what was happening with the SETI project easily
1:04 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Reinstalled OS
1:11 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Reformatted hard drive and forgot to reinstall it
1:16 AM UTC, October 13 2006
reformatted my PC and forgot to put it back on
1:21 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It was not as graphic as the old software for SETI
1:28 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Found BOINC too distractive, would prefer to see something other than it computing data all the time.
1:35 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Didn't care for the innerface
1:53 AM UTC, October 13 2006
computing issues related to computer control.
1:58 AM UTC, October 13 2006
BOINC opens ports that allow remote management of my machines. The original SETI@home program could only download work units, not allow me or anyone to take remote control of my processing horsepower even when there is a firewall. I considered this change in philosophy treason.
2:01 AM UTC, October 13 2006
In the classic version, my reusults were in the 98 percentile. Yes, there was a little ego here in addition to the pride of beging a small part of some important research. And I knew that the top scores were probably going to some IT guy that had 100 CPU's at his command. But I was doing pretty good for a one desktop guy. So when you switched to BONIC, I was doubly enthused because I could run the data on both processors at the same time. And it went along OK for several months. Then I started getting the message that ende in "WAIT 3 DAYS". Then five days later it was "wait two days". Then "wait 10 days". And it was stuck for a month at "wait 20 days". Enough is enough. Uninstall.
2:08 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I moved to a room with no internet connection
2:09 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It made my computers run too hot (full throttle all the time).
2:15 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Old Seti was better , more graphical, and didn't wipe out my 5 years of points.
2:20 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It didn't work
2:21 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Lost access to computers that could run BOINC
2:27 AM UTC, October 13 2006
computer crashed, never restarted it
2:28 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I could not tune the program to use less that 100% processor.
2:30 AM UTC, October 13 2006
didn't like losing setique
2:39 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I don't like the BOINC product
2:41 AM UTC, October 13 2006
The linux client for the amd64 architecture isn't stable yet
2:43 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I run the computer in my main living area to incorporate it into audio system, after a mac software upgrade SETI caused the processor fan to run contiuously, I detest the noise so I shut SETI down.
2:48 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Could not track progress like the old seti, Do not like reporting thru BOINC
2:54 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I really preferred the original SETI@Home's 'look & feel'.
3:06 AM UTC, October 13 2006
BONIC was to unstable to bother with.. the old way worked. If BONIC is better now, I will try again
3:31 AM UTC, October 13 2006
replaced harddrive never thought about reinstalling
3:48 AM UTC, October 13 2006
it failed to automatically stop processing when i used my computer
4:02 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I wish I could remember just what made it such a pain, but I didn't bother reinstalling it after a disk crash because I didn't much like it compared to the old SETI@home. Too bad, because I really liked being part of the project.
4:16 AM UTC, October 13 2006
NEVER WORK AT THE START OF NEW BONIC, ALWAYS AN EXCUSES FROM SETI@home (FAQ) AFTER 6 MONTHS, STILL NO UPLOADING, HAVE TO TAKE TIME OUT TO TRY AND MAKE IT WORK!
4:27 AM UTC, October 13 2006
i did not like it and then i lost my intrest
4:32 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Stopped using Windows, using Linux now.
4:58 AM UTC, October 13 2006

Previous software worked better
5:41 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It disturbed my sons wargames
5:52 AM UTC, October 13 2006
das alte Seti@home gefiehl mir besser und lief stabieler
6:04 AM UTC, October 13 2006
die Rechenzeit für ein Resultat zu lang war(2-3 Wochen). Weiterhin ist nicht erkennbar was tatsächlich gerechnet wird. Ich möchte nicht das "zuverlich" kommerzelle oder militärische Berechnungen unter dem Namen BOINC gerechnet werden.
6:28 AM UTC, October 13 2006
prefiero versiones de línea de comandos, esto es estúpido
6:33 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Computer too noisy due to the processor usage
6:57 AM UTC, October 13 2006
I never really understood how the new system worked, the old seti was much clearer
7:18 AM UTC, October 13 2006
it became too unstable and kept locking the machine out requiring a reboot which is no laughing matter on a Linux system
7:22 AM UTC, October 13 2006

it kept having problems attaching to SETI
9:48 AM UTC, October 13 2006
die Verfallzeit einer Workunit viel zu gering ist und keine Workunit fertig wird!
10:14 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Seti@home worked great b4 boinc - after, there way too many little and not so little problems.
10:16 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Old Seti was better. BOINC is boring.
10:25 AM UTC, October 13 2006
i changed provider and forgot butt beleive there is somthing out there
10:49 AM UTC, October 13 2006
It took too long to get another unit.
11:07 AM UTC, October 13 2006
it did not run as well command line I was running
11:26 AM UTC, October 13 2006
PC Kept getting slower and having problems. I now have a Mac.
11:28 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Created too much heat
11:29 AM UTC, October 13 2006
Too much proc overhead, I really disliked the new graphics
11:36 AM UTC, October 13 2006
My SEIT@Home contributions seemed insignificant
12:04 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Because my classic stats got set to zero because of your server malfunctioning when the project shut down due to some server sommand not telling my WU caching program to stop trying to upload the completed WU and to delete the result
12:07 PM UTC, October 13 2006
didn't play nice with other software
12:15 PM UTC, October 13 2006
not good for my laptop's "health"
12:18 PM UTC, October 13 2006
the screen savers looked boring. I like the SETI original one you had but we cant look for aliens anymore since you don't send out new packets.
12:21 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I used to run pre-boinc seti@home, but now my main computer is a laptop
12:55 PM UTC, October 13 2006
My old SETI efforts did not transfer over well
1:13 PM UTC, October 13 2006
upgraded computer and forgot to reinstall
1:16 PM UTC, October 13 2006
my team members couldn't help me much and I couldn't figure out how to get help from BOINC or SETI@home.
1:16 PM UTC, October 13 2006
BOINC never worked right and trying to get legit help was not possible.
1:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I lost a lot of cool built up "hours" during the switch over
1:27 PM UTC, October 13 2006
because I liked the graphical part of the old program. I wanted to SEE what my computer was doing, not just having it work for you. With the new program, all it does it just work and I get no enjoyment out of it as I work, before I could watch it doing its magic, now... nothing. Give me a graphical interface back and I will put it back on all my machines. I had 3 running it before, now I have 5 that could be running it including a linux machine.
1:49 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Tuve problemas de ordenador
1:57 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Attaching to a project was a bit convoluted too.

CPU overheat
3:01 PM UTC, October 13 2006
REinstalled system, forgot to install again.
3:02 PM UTC, October 13 2006
i cant login... it wrote "login failed"
3:09 PM UTC, October 13 2006
you don't support my primary platform -- OpenVMS on Alpha or Itanium
3:13 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Uses too much CPU
3:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
too many problems getting work; over heating computer
3:34 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Trouble running BOINC in Windows XP
3:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
lack of (easy) AMD64 K8 support from my projects
3:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
your new system started and I never got into it. I ran SETI for about 3 years.
3:46 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Moved from classic Seti to BOINC Seti. Too difficult to get work units submitted. And... BOINC didn't import my previous history. I am still furious.
3:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I felt there are more important BOINC projects like climateprediction, protein folding, etc.
3:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It's a piece of junk
3:55 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I am pretty smart, took too long to get it working.
4:01 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Switched to Folding@Home
4:11 PM UTC, October 13 2006
ni me acuerdo
4:16 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It does not work properly
4:30 PM UTC, October 13 2006
it seemed to be inconsistent; sometimes it would be working sometimes it wouldn't and then I wouldn't have a proper screensaver; I just felt there were problems with it which is too bad because I really liked the idea behind it. I'd love to go back to it if I knew it would be consistent
4:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I don't like boinc. I like seti
4:48 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Liked old, simple, non-boinc SETI way
4:49 PM UTC, October 13 2006
didn't seem to be able to receive new work units from project when neede so there was too much unused CPU time
4:55 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Diese Software stand im Verdacht Netzwerkprobleme im G+J-Netzwerk hervorzurufen, deswegen haben wir sie von allen Computern entfernen müssen.
5:00 PM UTC, October 13 2006
it doesn't work as good as the old one. To much maintenance to keep going.
5:01 PM UTC, October 13 2006
The new BOINC screensaver for SETI is really bad.
5:01 PM UTC, October 13 2006
had computer problems and eliminated all "unnecessary" programs to find the problem; just never got back to it...
5:08 PM UTC, October 13 2006
BOINC is a Resource HOG
5:09 PM UTC, October 13 2006
je crois que je n'ai pas reussi a faire du seti@home mais uniquement certaines autres donnees
5:18 PM UTC, October 13 2006
GO BACK TO seti@home, DUMP that BOINC CRAP
5:22 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I stopped with Boinc on my computer, because the computer can'nt cope anymore do to your software.
5:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
i just didn't like the interface, bring back the old and i will start running seti again
5:27 PM UTC, October 13 2006
it looked rubbish - bring back the old mac screensaver
5:30 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It refuses to connect to my project, SETI
5:38 PM UTC, October 13 2006
менял работу
5:41 PM UTC, October 13 2006
it gave trouble, and I loved the old Seti screensaver
6:03 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It would not upload and I could not give it more the 2megs of mem I ahve 30 megs free for this project
6:03 PM UTC, October 13 2006
cvs versions would not compile
6:13 PM UTC, October 13 2006
operating system crach an i forgo to insall again
6:14 PM UTC, October 13 2006
The BOINC Windows XP screensaver starts, but most of the time is suspended and no work gets done. The logo just goes around the screen, but no work gets done. I tried reinstalling BOINC, it worked for a while and then again starting doing this. Same problem on my home and work computer.
6:23 PM UTC, October 13 2006
folding at home
6:31 PM UTC, October 13 2006
user unfriendly, see comments below
6:35 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Had computer issues - non BOINC.
6:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Our IT guy asked that all software he did not install be removed from my laptop as I was complaining on how slow my laptop had been running of late.....
6:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Change in network policy at work blocked access BOINC servers
7:00 PM UTC, October 13 2006
slowed computer down
7:07 PM UTC, October 13 2006
did not like the software
7:08 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I liked the older interface much better
7:25 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Software got to complicated and created problems and seems to crash all the time. This was suppose to be simple but got to be a compatition
7:26 PM UTC, October 13 2006
oublier de réinstaller
7:30 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Lost many credits of hours after switching from the old setiathome, i know that not the point, but you did not think it through very well, felt like old credits are not import to "SETI" so it should not be import to the users.
7:36 PM UTC, October 13 2006
VISTA
7:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I don't like the software. It uses up more of my system resources, and I don't like the interface. I like the old software much better.
7:48 PM UTC, October 13 2006
mir mitgeteilt wurde, dass SETI HOME beendet wurde
7:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
RC5-72
7:55 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I signed up with SETI@Home years ago (when it first started) - it was simple and I could d something to help. Now it's just over-complicated, what were you guys thinking!
7:59 PM UTC, October 13 2006
alles auf Englisch
8:04 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Other projects and I couldn't reclaim classic SETI credit b/c of lost password
8:06 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It was confusing, and I was never sure if it was working properly
8:10 PM UTC, October 13 2006
used too much of my system resources ie memory
8:11 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Hardware problems on my laptop combined with dogslow ISP speed & availability (wah!)
8:16 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Rechner wurde neu aufgesetzt... Boinc war weg....
8:19 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Because BOINC eat too much RAM & HDD place, & got many unused options & config features that are not need. It's just piece of many things that make garbage. The software that was used before BOINC was 1000% better, simlper & much easier to start & forget WITHOUT INSTALLATION.
8:19 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Katrina - I work in New Orleans
8:21 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Not as "cool" looking.
8:22 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I hate the complicated method to attach to projects, the poor information regarding the projects, the very poorly designed interface, the lack of visibilty on contribution relative to others and I also started processing dnet data (possibility of getting paid)
8:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
siehe unten
8:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Liked the original software much better
8:30 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Programm ist zu umfangreich
8:37 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It stopped keeping track of my work units.
8:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
動作させるとCPUが100%の使用率になってしまい、ペンティアム4であっという間に終わってしまう。
8:46 PM UTC, October 13 2006
oprogramowanie BOINC mi nie przypadło do gustu-poprzednia wersja projektu seti@home była dużo ciekwasze i program stwarzam problemy -po przerobieniu próbki nie wysyłał jej i zaczynał pobierać kolejną-z tąd po przerobieniu kilku miałem dalej że nie zrobiłem nic wogłule.
8:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It was always running and couldn't figure out how to set it to run only when computer was not in use.
8:54 PM UTC, October 13 2006
like old interface better
9:00 PM UTC, October 13 2006
projects were down for a long time
9:05 PM UTC, October 13 2006
PC läuft heiß..
9:06 PM UTC, October 13 2006
i liked using the original software
9:07 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Don't use my stationary PC much anymore...
9:10 PM UTC, October 13 2006
there is no official linux 64 bit client
9:12 PM UTC, October 13 2006
had problems downloading projects, and completing work units successfully
9:17 PM UTC, October 13 2006
constant site problems
9:24 PM UTC, October 13 2006
missed the old interface
9:27 PM UTC, October 13 2006
It was much less complicated and more user friendly with the original SETI project software. I was running it nearly continulously for some 5 years, but rather lost interest when the new BOINC came along. I felt that it all lost it's way.
9:27 PM UTC, October 13 2006
The old Seti application was genious in its simplicity.
9:40 PM UTC, October 13 2006
We liked doing the Seti project as a screen saver ( we do believe in the effort ) but the boinc software kept ending it's jobs and wanting attention, We finally just disabled it. If you have a program still operating that is just the Seti search we'd be interested. Thanks for the contact.
9:41 PM UTC, October 13 2006
SETI at home didn't run properly in Guest mode, which my computers run in most of the time.
9:57 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I couldn't attach to a project
9:57 PM UTC, October 13 2006
reformatted my computer and just didn't put it back on. And I don't have the password and BOINC is not as much fun for me to run.
10:00 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I had some problems with my computer.
10:01 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Interferred with cpu-intensive applications MUCH more than the original SEtI software
10:15 PM UTC, October 13 2006
sucked up my bandwith, pc ran slow.
10:18 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I didn't work. I reinstalled several times, and yes - I carfully followed th install directions. I was simply an unreliable piece of software, only working briefly if at all. A vastly less satisfying experience than the previous setiathome software.
10:18 PM UTC, October 13 2006
alte seti@home software war kleiner und schöner vom Design
10:20 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Often would stop. Felt like I lost all my "pre-BOINC" work since it started over at 0.
10:31 PM UTC, October 13 2006
IT dept banned BOINC
10:32 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Did not like the screen saver
10:34 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I lost my internet
10:42 PM UTC, October 13 2006
my computer crashed, but is now operational
10:48 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Concern for overheating cpu
10:49 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I was on a dial-up connection and reconnection to obtain work units was becomming a significant cost. An email asking about the possibility of downloading multiple work units at reconnection, received no reply!
10:50 PM UTC, October 13 2006
The new software is ridiculously complicated, the old client was prefecty capable and simple in comparison
10:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
i needed the cpu power to run 24/7 java apps
10:51 PM UTC, October 13 2006
DIdnt provide Old Seti stats I liked
10:56 PM UTC, October 13 2006
You lost all my results
10:57 PM UTC, October 13 2006
BOINC is much more problematic and harder to configure than SETI was
11:02 PM UTC, October 13 2006
BOINC software needs reworked, it is lame!!!
11:14 PM UTC, October 13 2006
it was a memory pig and had memory leaks, crap software
11:23 PM UTC, October 13 2006
Too many errors in work units
11:32 PM UTC, October 13 2006
didn't like the boinic software
11:38 PM UTC, October 13 2006
(1) Kept laptop in high power mode and the fan on and (2) the windows priority bug has not been fixed - still interferes with MS outlook express
11:41 PM UTC, October 13 2006
cambié mi equipo y no lo instalé en el nuevo
11:43 PM UTC, October 13 2006
I could never get it to run. It was confusing and badly designed from a user standpoint. I am not a novice; I am a professional programmer.
12:00 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I obtained a work computer and felt that it was right to run your program on it
12:01 AM UTC, October 14 2006
new computer,didn't get around to installing it again
12:01 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Spent all the time trying to connect and return results and get new work. Lost credit for previous work done before loading BOINC.
12:04 AM UTC, October 14 2006
My computer became outdated
12:09 AM UTC, October 14 2006
No longer able to drag-and-drop install on systems
12:15 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I liked the funny screensaver from the early days and since that is gone I stopped with SETI. Does Boinc have a screensaver now ? The old version I had didn't or it was a hidden function somewhere.
12:17 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I lost my password and was unable to recieve credit for the work I was doing.
12:33 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It was intrusive in a way the old software was not.
12:34 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Cambie computadora y no reinstalé
12:38 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Not so much complicated as "required more thought than single-use SET@HOME"
12:41 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Took too long to complete a cycle -- weeks?
12:46 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Miserable to connect to transfer completed units and get new units. Go back to the old SETI, and I'll come back. Otherwise, I have enough aggravations without yours, thank you.
1:09 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I didn't realize I wasn't turning in work units anymore
1:10 AM UTC, October 14 2006
SETI seemed over-subscribed
1:11 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I moved to a location w/no internet connection, but that will be changing soon and i'll be back online within a month
1:11 AM UTC, October 14 2006
computer crashed lost all s/w

The benchmark testing ran way too often and consumed too much CPU time when it did.
1:14 AM UTC, October 14 2006
My comp ran into problems starting all Screen Savers & I haven't bothered to fix that issue...
1:18 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It used to much resourses, i like the old Seti@home software better
1:29 AM UTC, October 14 2006
visual display and results were difficult to interpert. I used to run seti spy but lost interest in boinc.
1:30 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I could not tell what/how I was doing.
1:46 AM UTC, October 14 2006
The results just took too long to happen as it was too memory consuming
2:04 AM UTC, October 14 2006
The software would ALWAYS fail when trying to connect to SETI servers. But when I tried manually it would connect without problem. That became a PAIN.
2:05 AM UTC, October 14 2006
very invasive program
2:10 AM UTC, October 14 2006
computer crash + reload + can't configure BOINC again...other projects running....hard to know if a project is dormant or broken...forgot password
2:17 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It seemed to never complete any work. At least the interface was confusing enough that I couldn't tell whether it did or not.
2:19 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It was not engaging like Seti. As I tried to tell you before. There was no visual display, only stats. I wanted to see the projects process with the flowing graphics. I am not interested in watching a damn spreadsheet telling me what my computer is working on and not be able to watch the work.
2:30 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I reinstalled my system and haven't reinstalled it yet
2:34 AM UTC, October 14 2006
switched to new computer
2:43 AM UTC, October 14 2006
your site wouldn't load new stuff
2:48 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Computer broke, and OS no longer supported when I finally got it back up.

3:14 AM UTC, October 14 2006
All my projects became "unattached" and I was unable to reattach
3:17 AM UTC, October 14 2006
my computer would suddenly shut down
3:23 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Causes laptop fans to speed along
3:29 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I had liked the old SETI interface much better
3:40 AM UTC, October 14 2006
trouble transfering nic "toddoldb1" became "toddoldb1a"
3:47 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It hogged all of my resources and would not release the processor back to me when I wanted to use it.
3:50 AM UTC, October 14 2006
System rebuild - forgot
3:54 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Caused my processor to overheat and shut down. Will join again if I can fix the problem.
4:13 AM UTC, October 14 2006
i preferred the older method of counting work units. Furthermore, all my original work units were now gone.
4:27 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I could never understand how much i had cntributed to the overall SETI effort, unlike the pre-BOINC system which always provided a way to understand where a participant stood in the population of participants.
4:36 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I hated the interface
4:44 AM UTC, October 14 2006
i liked the old version with the graph
4:55 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I prefer the old Seti Client.
4:58 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I found that it was downloading network information that you had no reason to tak. I felt that was an invasion of privacy and deleted the program and agents.
4:59 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I moved and didn't have a computer
4:59 AM UTC, October 14 2006
it was not as easy to deal with as the old software
5:05 AM UTC, October 14 2006

5:09 AM UTC, October 14 2006
IT took most of my units away. I started seti in the 90's because of Art Bell. That seems gone too.
5:20 AM UTC, October 14 2006

6:23 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I preferred the old interface rather than boinc. I liked the old graphics etc and the way of recording how much work I had done. I did not like the chnages that were made so lost interest.
6:25 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It isn't optimised for use on a laptop
6:27 AM UTC, October 14 2006

6:52 AM UTC, October 14 2006
application lacked the personality and personalized seti feel of the original. Not to mention the graphics.
6:55 AM UTC, October 14 2006
it was non-intuitive, and the graph were indecipherable
7:06 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I didn't like the way it operated
7:15 AM UTC, October 14 2006
my previous work was not calculated correctly and I preferred the classic format

I lost interest because of the programme BOINC.
8:27 AM UTC, October 14 2006
The computer crashed and had to reinstall everything and forgot to reinstall BOINC
8:27 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I would pause it and it would restart automatically.
8:28 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Changed ISP & I had no way of updating my details with an unrecognised password.
8:31 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It is no easier since I tried it when it was first launched, I had no control over it, it ran when I set it not to and used 100% of my cpu power, it had to go. The old Seti program was simple BOINC is just complicated. For example, when I am setting it up it asks me which URL to use, so I have to exit the setup to find out, if I type it in wrongly and press finish I have lost the setup, make it simple, simple, simple, simple. Also, the graphics are awful, a rotating fuzzy image. Go back to the simple SETI.
8:35 AM UTC, October 14 2006

The access to Seti was blocked by corporate firewall
8:44 AM UTC, October 14 2006
i didn't like the screensaver.. it bounces around.. and, i lost all my stats when i transfered over to boinc
8:45 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I bought a new p.c.
8:53 AM UTC, October 14 2006
There is no way / it is too comlicated to schedule BOINC to stop after working fixed perioid of time (so that my computer would hibernate)
9:04 AM UTC, October 14 2006
My server ran slower
9:12 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I lost credit for old working unit when seti changed program to Boinc

10:30 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Seti@Home is not 100% open source. A binary is needed underneath.
10:38 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I don't like it
10:44 AM UTC, October 14 2006
It was hard on my system resources.
10:58 AM UTC, October 14 2006

I likedthe old seti client. this boinc thing sucks
11:06 AM UTC, October 14 2006
it doesn't have the visual appeal I am used to
11:07 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I don't like the program, it's too convoluted
11:15 AM UTC, October 14 2006
NO CPU THROTTLING !!!!!!
11:20 AM UTC, October 14 2006
My computer broke down (due to a non-boinc related issue)
11:20 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I liked SETI Classic
11:24 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I could not get it compiled and working in Gentoo Linux on AMD64 bit
11:26 AM UTC, October 14 2006
it wasn't as interesting visually as the old client
11:26 AM UTC, October 14 2006
Is didn't have internet
11:34 AM UTC, October 14 2006
it used up too much processing power/ram, and the cooling fan was constantly on full speed
11:34 AM UTC, October 14 2006

Didn't play nice with other applications;boinc would compete for CPU time, and set to run only when idle, nothing ever got done.Multiple Project attaching and management was also difficult. The mac client was far too buggy.
11:46 AM UTC, October 14 2006
used too much computing power, I use a laptop
11:47 AM UTC, October 14 2006
I wasn't convinced that it was doing anything productive.

11:56 AM UTC, October 14 2006
seit BOINC macht es keinen Spass mehr, das feedback dauert ewig, der Server ist oft nicht errechbar, früher hat es mehr Spass gemacht, jetzt sieht man zu oft das BOINC-Logo und nix passiert. Weg von BOINC, wieder SETI allein wie früher und ich mache wieder mit...
11:57 AM UTC, October 14 2006
upgraded computer and forgot
11:59 AM UTC, October 14 2006
From what I remember, it was way too resource heavy and did not integrate with the screensaver as the last one did. I just remember it running when I duidn't want it to, and there didn't seem to be any decent way to configure it as I wanted it to run, ie. only as a screensaver.
12:00 PM UTC, October 14 2006

I am travelling and do not log into my computer anymore
12:41 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Temporary overheating problem (not BOINC's fault)

Couldn't recover password when ISP changed and couldn't consolidate accounts
1:00 PM UTC, October 14 2006
It wiped out my computers. It was worse than the folded protein project. It was a primary cause for not leaving my computers running.
1:02 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Made the fan run constantly
1:05 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Too many reasons to list, but making it too dificult to retreive my previous login details capped it for me.

I like the old style screen saver. Boinc was not asthetically pleasing, and complicated.
3:42 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I need some CPU for my own use! I only have a P3
3:44 PM UTC, October 14 2006
New BOINC software is junk. The old SETI software was easier to use and worked much better. The BOINC interface is cludgy, looks bad.

I hate BOINC, I loved the original
3:57 PM UTC, October 14 2006
SETI didn't seem very interested in the program . . . wouldn't answer emails about BOINC problems, didn't seem to want to hear from anyone, especially with a substantive question.

4:31 PM UTC, October 14 2006
The program wanted to log on every 8000 seconds or so (two hours) for more data and then couldn't get new data. Agrivating as hell.
4:37 PM UTC, October 14 2006
The interface was not intuitive. I found it very difficult even with the few instructions provided to figure out how to get a project and how to do work units.
4:42 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I had to work a lot and also save on my electricity bill
4:48 PM UTC, October 14 2006
the original setti program was fine, but when you went to the new program it wouldn't upload the finished from my computer for hours and after it did it might not download a new program for hours.
4:48 PM UTC, October 14 2006
There were fewer and fewer updates for SETI. I thought THEY had lost interest.
4:54 PM UTC, October 14 2006
It didn't work well on my PC.
4:54 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I reformatted my hard drive and forgot all about Boinc.
4:55 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I did not like the fact that it ran at startup and sat in the system tray - I liked SETI when it only started from the screensaver
4:56 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I discovered that it had failed to send data for the best part of half a year, having errored somewhere and simply pulled another workpiece! I was unable to find a resolution to the problem, so removed the software and have not returned to it.
5:05 PM UTC, October 14 2006

The Classic SETI@Home software was better from an end user point of view. BOINC would crash out, or not run at all when set as a screensaver sometimes. Other times, it would have trouble connecting to the servers, and so it would be sitting idle much of the time. I never had a single problem with SETI@Home classic.

7:08 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Can't get it to run only when screen saver is engaged
7:16 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Work unit scoring made no sense. Effort from before effectively lost.
7:16 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I ran it for a long time on a 6100 Mac running 9.1. and also a G3 Blue Bondi running 9.2 But when I went to OSX SETI was not available.

I got another computer & forgot the program was on old one
7:40 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I think I got it to work right once but everytime I had to reinstall windows I had to go through the Boinc nightmare and just stopped bothering. It really was a PITA.
7:46 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I do not trust BOINC software. It may transmit my personal data.
7:47 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Weil alle Punkte aus seti@home classic verloren gegangen sind, und ich denke das ich wie viele andere auch ein Danke verdient hätten.
7:51 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I did not ask for, nor do I trust it.

8:00 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I just want to emphasize that it was no longer easy to use - at one point I had 10 computers running but your change to BOINC made it too complicated

8:27 PM UTC, October 14 2006
It was a real pain compared to my previous non_Boinc experience with Seti.
8:28 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I was never credited with any work!
8:30 PM UTC, October 14 2006
was not cluster friendly - ie: openMosix like SMP aware
8:38 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I changed my PC and have'nt installed it again
8:39 PM UTC, October 14 2006
It added to many non-seti choices. I just liked the old seti. I don't want to be solicited for other projects.
8:41 PM UTC, October 14 2006
it uses too much CPU and memory
8:44 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Only wanted Seti
8:44 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Boinc show no respect to long running users of the original SETI program

I do not like the new screen saver! The old screen saver ran smoother on my machine. The new one stops at times and would freez up.

the 8ball looking icon is not what i liked,i'm looking for aliens not shooting pool,give me back my green dish looking icon and i'll re-install seti, and even put it on the 3 other systerms i've have running,(soon to be 4).
10:14 PM UTC, October 14 2006
With the old seti there was no problem in running. But BOINC interferred in other programs. To much CPU load
10:19 PM UTC, October 14 2006
i was more productive under the former software
10:33 PM UTC, October 14 2006
boinc? this is the 1st i've heard of it. i allowed seti for 500hrs, then terminated.
10:41 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Some projects just took up all my CPU time and I coudn't set them lower when I needed to use my computer: i.e. it didn't run in background very well
10:50 PM UTC, October 14 2006
internet problems
10:53 PM UTC, October 14 2006
BIONC Is a horrible program.. Not user friendly at all and takes up too much of my computer resources. Hate it and that's why I left SETI.
10:56 PM UTC, October 14 2006
It was very cumbersome to configure and consumed more memory than original SETI. I wish original SETI program to be distributed again!
10:56 PM UTC, October 14 2006
J'ai revu ma position par rapport à ce genre de projet
11:00 PM UTC, October 14 2006
Original SETI would not slow down computer but BOINC did slow it down tremendously
11:03 PM UTC, October 14 2006
no credit for old work units
11:09 PM UTC, October 14 2006
BOINC used too much memory and was too difficult to use for the only project I was interested in running - SETI@Home
11:10 PM UTC, October 14 2006
running on a laptop that has intermittent connectivity is problematic
11:29 PM UTC, October 14 2006
I just don't like BOINC. I'm not sure why. Also I use my downtime for other things at the moment.
11:35 PM UTC, October 14 2006
needed feedback on progress

slowed my comptuer to a crawl, and it's fast enough and has enough memory -- so now I'm doing the world community grid projects. Hatted to give you guys up -- but the program just slowed my comptuer to a crawl! and I'm 1.6 gigs with a gig of ram and use 3000 mgs of diskram.
12:29 AM UTC, October 15 2006
ich fand es besser, als seti@home eigenständige software war und nicht über boinc lief. das laden dauert jetzt länger

i used it initially when it had just switched over and there weren't enough work units, also BOINC wanted to run in the background all the time instead of just when screensaver was on.

couldn't get it onto a new computer

2:20 AM UTC, October 15 2006
I liked it better the way it was before, to complicated for what it's supposed to do, get rid of BOINC, and i'll be back
2:31 AM UTC, October 15 2006
It slowed me down a lot.
2:31 AM UTC, October 15 2006
You didn't have Linux support at first. I know you do now, but I lost interest and stopped looking for a linux client.

My Windows PC would crash during each day until I removed BOINC. Then it was OK, it wouldn't crash.
4:06 AM UTC, October 15 2006
BOINC lacked features of SETI software.

4:53 AM UTC, October 15 2006
No nice graphical displays.
5:07 AM UTC, October 15 2006
It was a waste, because you had run out of unprocessed WUs with SETI@Home, and were just re-checking existing ones.
5:07 AM UTC, October 15 2006
It was starting to burn a pattern on my monitor
5:20 AM UTC, October 15 2006
it seemed to me that the need for systems was decreasing because of the bionic options to run other software

I upgraded to a top of the line pentium d computer, and at the rate it would crunch the numbers, your program was overheating my computer!!! My cooling fans ran constantly at top speed, untill I finally had to replace them. I would love to volunteer the use of my computer for scientific research again, but not at the cost of burning up my unit. If, in the future, you are able to resolve this issue, I would be more than pleased to reload your software and donate my computer time to help with research.

11:39 AM UTC, October 15 2006
There were no decents stats or graphics like the old seti client
11:47 AM UTC, October 15 2006
keine Arbeit mehr für boinc und kein vernünftiger support
11:48 AM UTC, October 15 2006
because i have a new computer
11:49 AM UTC, October 15 2006
The program keeps open windows and bothers normal computing activities. The SETI software interfered much less.
11:57 AM UTC, October 15 2006
I do not use a BOINC-compatible platform anymore. I'm using BeOS/Zeta now, but BOINC is not available for this platform :(
12:01 PM UTC, October 15 2006
weil boinc langsamer ist als das alte seti-programm
12:02 PM UTC, October 15 2006

gelegentliche Abstürze des BOINC-Programms haben jeweils zum Verlust der Arbeitsergebnisse geführt.

The pc was constantly noisy and produced to much heat in my workroom while running Boinc
1:02 PM UTC, October 15 2006
Didn't provide the same level of statistics as the previous software
1:09 PM UTC, October 15 2006
The GUI is too intense to be used all the time. Bring back the command line product!
1:11 PM UTC, October 15 2006
BOINC Seem to be crashing my OSx Machines. Waiting for a clean version.
1:23 PM UTC, October 15 2006
cpu over heating
1:24 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It became too intrusive and I couldn't figure out how to stop it from running when I didn't want it running. The older SETI@home software seemed to be less intrusive, and it was easy to turn off.
1:34 PM UTC, October 15 2006
I wanted to save electricity and have my computer go into hibernate.
1:35 PM UTC, October 15 2006
Origninal Seti app was focused on Seti, and less complicated then this BONIC junk. I am out of the program until you improve/simplify the program
1:40 PM UTC, October 15 2006
This software acts buggy-Keep it simple
1:45 PM UTC, October 15 2006
Seti would no longer run on my computer

I couldn't get rosseta to run
1:59 PM UTC, October 15 2006
because it's not safe. there are hundreds of security reports referring boinc and SETI@home as security threats and nothing was done to solve them.
2:00 PM UTC, October 15 2006
previous credit system was easier to understand and I could compete with friends on how many units we processed.

2:25 PM UTC, October 15 2006

2:26 PM UTC, October 15 2006
Never worked properly. Refused to connect. Couldn't get help. I see in the FAQ that the problem persists for others with no solution.

2:37 PM UTC, October 15 2006
didn't like BOINC software - I liked the old SETI software

you screwed it up- software -format-procedure-original worked fine. I don't have time to mess around with YOUR adjustments

It interfered with the installation of security software. I could not figure out how to shut it down while the software was installing. BOINC kept restarting itself so I uninstalled it.
2:57 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It did not record how many packets I was processing

It used too much of my memory

the original SETI@home software was better and simpler
3:12 PM UTC, October 15 2006
mehrmals WUs während der Berechnung abgebrochen wurden(z.b. bei CPDN)
3:19 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It took up too much computing power on my work computer and never went into "sleep mode" like it was supposed to when I started working.
3:23 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It also was not giving me credit for computer time properly
3:29 PM UTC, October 15 2006
Just flat out sucked compared to the prior and my old workunit tally got assed up.
3:30 PM UTC, October 15 2006
did not trust the programme to report genuine finds and lots of approaches from groups

after months of running BOINC i never saw my work units/stats increase ... so I was not sure it was working
4:27 PM UTC, October 15 2006
I got a new PC and forgot to reinstall the program

It was not like the old cmd line client of the old program. And I had problem setting it to used less resources so WinMX and eMule can coexist with it.

Anwendung lief nach einigen Versuchen nicht mehr. Ich schrieb an Seti um Hilfe zu bitten. Ich wurde an eine allgemeine FAQ Seite verwiesen. Dort wurden meine Fragen nicht beantwortet. Dannach bekam ich auch keine Antwort auf meine konkreten Fragen, also konnte ich die Anwendung nie wieder benutzen.

7:58 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It was far less user friendly than 'seti', and uninteresting, and the feedback from the sites posting pages were basically, "tough, get used to it". I had neither the time or inclination to trawl through the site to find out how to donate my time, so gave up and uninstalled. We all have a choice!

8:09 PM UTC, October 15 2006
it's no open source
8:12 PM UTC, October 15 2006
It requires too much data to download and it's "heavier" than the old simple Seti@Home client

BOINC caused so many problems that I was constantly frustrated. I stuck with it because I love the SETI project and I wanted to keep contributing. I have a new computer now, and just thinking about going through that hassle again gives me a headache. Such a shame. The SETI project was a wonderful way for people to participate in an important scientific endeavour.

I liked the old seti system better and that is where all my credit is
12:22 AM UTC, October 16 2006
bad appearance (classic SETI looked a lot better)
12:28 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Often had trouble downloading new work units
12:28 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I didn't like the new version of the software and the way it worked. I preferred the older version.
12:42 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I like to view my digital pics on the screen saver.
12:43 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I rebuilt my machine
12:54 AM UTC, October 16 2006
needed to reinstall os forgot to put boinc back in
12:55 AM UTC, October 16 2006
the original screensaver burned into my computer screen
12:57 AM UTC, October 16 2006
it took up a lot of space on my machine. machine would slow down when it was on. i use tibook os x.3.9
12:58 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I heard the project was over
12:58 AM UTC, October 16 2006
not permitted by gov't policy, sorry.
12:59 AM UTC, October 16 2006
forgot to reinstall
1:02 AM UTC, October 16 2006
'Seemed that BOINC caused a short delay launching other apps when it was running.
1:04 AM UTC, October 16 2006
the program was not doing any work, I had 4 projects there and none of them ever completed even one unit. At start up, the BOINC would freeze too.
1:05 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I purchased new computer and haven't reinstalled as yet
1:07 AM UTC, October 16 2006
no recognition after 1 year
1:07 AM UTC, October 16 2006
took up too much ram
1:12 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I changed computers and never reloaded it
1:14 AM UTC, October 16 2006
doesn't give me enough control over my own machine
1:17 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I preferred the previous software
1:22 AM UTC, October 16 2006
It was far too obtrusive and I was also worried about security issues. I preffered the old Seti@Home screensaver it was simple, straitforward and did the job.
1:23 AM UTC, October 16 2006
You need better support on Linux Operating systems
1:24 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Bonic was plagued with shutdowns and inability to reach the server. I never liked the lack of security in BONIC, I don't want software loading itself on my computer. Until changes in the updating are made I will not run BONIC.
1:25 AM UTC, October 16 2006
couldn't do anything... I attached projects and nothing ever happened and it wreaked havok on my systems
1:27 AM UTC, October 16 2006
visually unappealing
1:28 AM UTC, October 16 2006
computer too slow
1:29 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Reloaded operating system and do not remember my userid
1:33 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Minimum system requirements were becoming too high as the program continued to bloat unrestrained
1:40 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I use a new computer, and forgot to use it again
1:42 AM UTC, October 16 2006
too much processor and disk usage, became problematic when my harddrive failed.
1:50 AM UTC, October 16 2006
it wasn't downloading the units on its own
1:51 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Original Seti@home client was better
1:56 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Old Computer Died
2:00 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Unable to connect to send results
2:11 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Couldn't shut down computer without manually shutting down BOINC
2:11 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I was running it at work and was ask to stop (I had permission but they changed there mind).
2:14 AM UTC, October 16 2006
It was not as transparent as precious SETI software.
2:25 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Older computers it ran on failed.
2:26 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I'm not sure why
2:30 AM UTC, October 16 2006
No credit for work already done, ugly interface, stopped getting tasks
2:31 AM UTC, October 16 2006
did not like it.
2:32 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I didn't like the new screensaver
2:34 AM UTC, October 16 2006
had to reformat and lost it
2:47 AM UTC, October 16 2006
It causes my computer to run at too high a level--it makes the chip run hotter, eats up too many cycles, and slows down my system.
2:50 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Didn't have work packets available. Machine wasn't being used to started Genome project. Had software and server problems withthat so I quit. Miss the dedicated Seti days!
2:56 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Don't like CPU running at maximum and don't like running threadmaster
3:00 AM UTC, October 16 2006

3:08 AM UTC, October 16 2006
My hard drive fried itself and I havent got round to re-installing the program
3:09 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Before BIONIC I understood, but now I dont get whats happening. Make it simple. Just one app fo SETI.
3:13 AM UTC, October 16 2006

3:38 AM UTC, October 16 2006

3:43 AM UTC, October 16 2006
After upgrading to a new version of Seti@Home, I had problems, and was unable to get any help from Seti, so I stopped using it.

Changes of email prevented me to log in my account and had to create a new one, losing all from ex account. Email seti@home but didnt seemed to care much
5:34 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I was advised that the SETI program had be finalised
5:39 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Running the software on a laptop caused the Laptop to generate excessive amounts of heat which I was concerned would cause damage to my machine.
5:43 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I dont like bonic
5:44 AM UTC, October 16 2006
The program caused my fan to run at annoying speed
5:53 AM UTC, October 16 2006
required too many system resources compared to the non-BOINC Seti@home
5:56 AM UTC, October 16 2006
nach PC neuinstallation Seti vergessen.
6:10 AM UTC, October 16 2006
problems were that it used all my CPU power. Constantly running at to high a level i felt the risk of burning out my CPU was greater thyan the value of the information from the project. Sorry but you really do need to turn down the CPU useage just for safety sake!!
6:12 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I haven't got my password
6:12 AM UTC, October 16 2006
It was too heavy application
6:18 AM UTC, October 16 2006

when I moved to BOINC I lost all my old history from SETI
6:35 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I had too much trouble getting all of the services to ONLY run when I was idle and running my screen saver.
6:39 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Worst screen saver ever, after the change over to Bonic!
6:47 AM UTC, October 16 2006
still need a better cooling system for my proccessors they were getting way to hot during the summer and freezing my machine up
6:57 AM UTC, October 16 2006
each update had installation issues on multi-user environs (win2k)
7:05 AM UTC, October 16 2006
Pre-BOINC Seti@home had been easier to install and manage.
7:09 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I heard that if my computer was the one that helped find a signal that I would not be mentioned by name or recieve even the smallest amount of credit and or recognition. So why bother I asked myself.
7:10 AM UTC, October 16 2006
it was hogging 98% of cpu. always.

7:26 AM UTC, October 16 2006
more usable project like cancer and other medecine project... better for humanity than E.T. intelligence.
7:29 AM UTC, October 16 2006
BOINC seemed to hog more resources than the SETI project itself
7:31 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I bought a new computer and did not install it
7:33 AM UTC, October 16 2006
I bought a new PC and didn't install it again.

BOINC is prototype software. UI is not straightforward. I want to determine what amount of CPU to use. Furthermore, I want OPTIMIZED seti binaries, i don't like having to compile/ download 3rd party compiled binaries. We shouldn't be wasting time in what can be done 5x faster with optimization.

at work: the website was blocked. At home: It took too long to upload and download units on my dial up connection. There were always too many errors, and it made any other web surfing too slow if I was trying to do anything else while the BOINC connection was active.
1:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It caused performance problems by using too much CPU time and PC resources. The old client ran only when other threads did not use the CPU.

when stopped the the search for extra terestrial life, then a lost my intrest to help seti but as long you are willing to find life somwhere else then a am whit you.
1:54 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I didn't like the rotating graphics
1:54 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I switched to Apple Mac
1:54 PM UTC, October 16 2006
switched from old progr.-Boinc
1:59 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Boinc läuft nicht vernünftig im Hintergrund. Auch ein nice setting von 20, führt nicht dazu, daß boinc nur die übrig bleibende CPU Zeit verwendet. Es verwendet immer minimal 15-20% und das ust absolut nicht in Ordnung.
2:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I quit when the screen format was changed - It appeared less evident that I was participating ; more just being "utilized".
2:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Screensaver would not release CPU time
2:06 PM UTC, October 16 2006
boinc quit working after an update
2:07 PM UTC, October 16 2006

I did not like boinic
2:13 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was running SETI@home on my work computer ( with my admin's Permision) but when I installed BOINC it caused problems with out net work so I uninstalled it and could not find the SETI software so I have not contributed
2:15 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Despised graphic interface. Original seti@home much better.
2:18 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I didn't like the alwayson nature of it. Using resources when I ran something else.
2:18 PM UTC, October 16 2006

2:20 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I liked the old SETI@home screen saver

2:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I lost my original account data and did not want to start from scratch.
2:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It frequently failed to work and I didn't like appearance.
2:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Projekt hatte immer wieder Probleme, kaum Datenpakte zum rechnen (SETI)
2:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Our computer tech informed me that it would caouse problems and take up too much memory, although, I was of a different mind about that as it runs in the background and understood it does not cause problems with the functioning of your computer. Please advise.
2:34 PM UTC, October 16 2006
CAUSED SCREEN BURN-IN REPLACED MONITOR 3 TIMES
2:38 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I want it only to run in screensaver
2:38 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was unable to run it in the background. It kept interrupting startup processes and running software with its pop-up screen
2:42 PM UTC, October 16 2006
could not get back in to check what my status was.
2:45 PM UTC, October 16 2006

2:46 PM UTC, October 16 2006
The screen saver started causing ghosting on my monitor
2:46 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it made my laptop run at 100%CPU usage so it was constantly running the fan as it was overheating
2:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I preferred the Mac OS 9 interface
2:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006

I liked the reporting and units that the old system ran
2:53 PM UTC, October 16 2006
switched to ubuntu and found no package. too lazy to set up myself. maybe there's one now? I never checked again
2:54 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Felt that I was getting already run and low profile files to analyze
2:54 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Did not work well on multi-user pc. The other user could hardly work as my screensave stole all the resources

3:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It would not connect
3:03 PM UTC, October 16 2006
My CPU overheated.
3:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Kept having to reconnect to project. It was a pain.
3:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Didn't like the app.
3:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
not easy to use - terrible graphics. Classic was better
3:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
My computer has been very slow ever since first running BOINC. I deactivated it at the request of my wife.

es auf meinem Rechner zu langsam war (PIII 1.1 GHz, 256 MB RAM)
3:10 PM UTC, October 16 2006
The program is not Mac OS X like. It is not userfriendly and the graphics for the screensaver are ugly. I wish you would get rid of the 3D and give an option for the old 2D graphics that looked much better.
3:12 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Caused the fans in my Macintosh G5 Quad to run at high speed, even when the screensaver part wasn't on
3:19 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It caused the laptop cpu to overheat
3:22 PM UTC, October 16 2006
had to reformat computer
3:23 PM UTC, October 16 2006
tha's why I stoped using seti
3:23 PM UTC, October 16 2006
BOINC stopped sending me units!

boss said I could not run SETI on a government computer at work due to concerns about virus and hackers
3:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I heard that the SETI Project was finished
3:29 PM UTC, October 16 2006
didn't work properly
3:30 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Credit system and display were less satisfying than old seti software. missed the command line option. CPU usage seemed worse.
3:30 PM UTC, October 16 2006
IIRC, BOINC never felt good, so I stopped Seti@home when it switched to BOINC
3:35 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Uses too much PC resource
3:38 PM UTC, October 16 2006
there were conflicts with some of my programs

When you switched software, I lost all my credits for over a years worth of computing time and lost interest as energy costs increased and the economy (and income) declined. You might try outsourcing to India, that's where my job went.
3:55 PM UTC, October 16 2006

3:57 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I lost my password, had to sign up as another user and lost all credit accumulated. Discouraging.
4:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Took too long to come out of screensaver
4:03 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it burned an image into my monitor
4:03 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it indepedently died and i do not have the proper id codes to get it started again and after all this time i just gave up
4:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
When I finished my first scan, I never knew how to start another one. It never started agin. I was at 100% and then nothing evr happend after the first week.
4:07 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Subscribed to SETI@home, when you changed to BOINC, couldn't be bothered to re-install.
4:15 PM UTC, October 16 2006
complicated and work not always done...
4:16 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I'm running NT4 Server on a DEC Alpha. I need a new client!
4:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I liked the old one
4:20 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I liked the old SETI client better
4:21 PM UTC, October 16 2006
SETI@Home used to be a nice stand-alone application, but now requires that stupid BOINC program to run it instead. What a waste.
4:25 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I reinstalled my OS and forgot to install the BOINC
4:26 PM UTC, October 16 2006
terrible interface; ugly and non-intuitive
4:27 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I thought your last email said you completed the Seti project.
4:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I ran the old system and was not allowed to transfer those credits to the new system
4:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
switched to an Intel Mac
4:37 PM UTC, October 16 2006
found it to be overly complex, and slower than the standalone seti software I had been using, also, it was just a giant pain in the ass.
4:38 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It would not cease operating when the computer was no longer idle. (returning from screensaver would not stop processing)
4:39 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I need to upgrade computer before using again.
4:44 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I did not like the Bonic Software or the graphic interface when it was implemented

It really bothered me how much the BOINC software ate compute cycles when I needed my machine for other work.
4:56 PM UTC, October 16 2006
If I could limit processor usage to say 10% or 20% then let me know how!
4:59 PM UTC, October 16 2006
CPU was running to hot at 130 F
4:59 PM UTC, October 16 2006
the old system was my screen saver and Ai couldn't get this one to work as that
4:59 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I dont want it run all the time only when i dont use my computer
5:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I had more control of my computer than I did - it got in the way.
5:03 PM UTC, October 16 2006
too much stuff from BOINC on my computer - too much probability of conflicts. Screen saver should not be so complex.
5:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it never completed a unit and never worked properly since I started using BOINC
5:11 PM UTC, October 16 2006
No credit for past work.
5:14 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Cost me to much time trying to get it to work
5:25 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It didn't work properly, it's ugly, bloated, and generally horrible. Bring back the original SETI client and I'll take part; which I haven't done since this ridiculous and horrible BOINC thing was introduced.
5:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I've received a mail about the end of SETI project
5:29 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I had 10 PCs running the old SETI client. Very old CPUs that would require administrative effort to configure with BOINC.
5:31 PM UTC, October 16 2006
installed new HDD, forgot reinstall
5:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
There was no version for the MAC OS I use.
5:33 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I don't know that it was complicated; but, the previous software appeared to be more user friendly I got tired of tinkering with it
5:35 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It became impossible to depend on BOINC... more than 50% of the time it would not connect properly.
5:36 PM UTC, October 16 2006
reformat
5:37 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Formatted my computer too many times.
5:40 PM UTC, October 16 2006
The changes to the SETI application, meant that my PC
5:42 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I don't run it all the time because it takes too much in the way of system resources.
5:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I did not like having a program run stuff on my computer without my permission or knowledge.

6:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
other than having to leave the computer on all the time the program used 100% of the cpu and i couldn't do other things while it was scanning and i never got credit from the old project to the new one. my group was deepspaceseti.
6:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I don't like the way BOINC works (lousy interface) compared to original SETI@home app/screensaver (on mac classic/OSX)
6:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I turned it off to save bandwidth while i was playing warcraft and forgot to turn it on again.
6:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
older computer
6:08 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It insisted the project was down for maintenance and wouldn't request more work or return results. Nobody answered my questions about why this happened.
6:11 PM UTC, October 16 2006
computer crashed and I lost the software
6:12 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Very busy here
6:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006

I've moved and I am nolonger in an environment to have my system on all of the time.
6:35 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was concerned that the background app was using bandwidth, not issue now with faster adsl.
6:55 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Program always hung, was unreliable, and was generally a pain to deal with.
6:56 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I don't think it worked as well as the old seti program and didn't work well on dial up.
7:01 PM UTC, October 16 2006
had problems gettine new work
7:05 PM UTC, October 16 2006
search for seti ended
7:07 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I don't like it. Sometimes it takes too long to get new work or to submit the completed work. The old seti@home software was better.
7:15 PM UTC, October 16 2006
New PC
7:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Boinc makes my computer slow while the old seti@home software that is no longer in use anymore worked PERFECTLY. I hope SETI stops working with BOINC really soon! And besides that, visually BOINC looks not that interesting like the old seti programm looked like. Boinc tries something in that direction but that looks so fake.
7:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Other software conflicts stopped my machine.
7:22 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I would download a work unit, and if something happened (i.e. a computer crash) BOINC would not recognize that I had an active unit, and would not let me attach to a project again...
7:24 PM UTC, October 16 2006
switch to another Mac
7:24 PM UTC, October 16 2006
see the next section
7:25 PM UTC, October 16 2006
because of virus problems on my PC
7:25 PM UTC, October 16 2006
New computer-didn't load BOINC
7:25 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Sad fact was, that BOINC was running all the time and not just when screensaver went on. Plus it consumes more electricity and causes more load on CPU which in case will brake up CPU faster
7:26 PM UTC, October 16 2006
With OS upgrade it stopped working and the new software was too complicated. I dont know which software to use, so many similar projects... and no package for Linux users!
7:30 PM UTC, October 16 2006
caused too much heat in my bedroom
7:37 PM UTC, October 16 2006
in process of getting a new computer; plan to continue using SETI, have been a user for several years
7:37 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it caused problems, slowdowns
7:41 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Not all of my credits were moved to the new project
7:43 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it drew resourses during my 3D renders.
7:46 PM UTC, October 16 2006
cannot find password
7:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
deathly boring; no work units
7:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Corporate security prevented running as screensaver
7:52 PM UTC, October 16 2006
After a time, it refused to work entirely on its own account and I was unable to get it going again
7:55 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I am getting old

I no longer have internet access at home;now using library resources
8:11 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I re installed my operating system, and all the information was lost.
8:14 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Would not allow me to connect for up/down loads with my dial-up system.
8:16 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Lost my previous ranking because it was tied to an email account that I no longer has access to.
8:18 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Was boring and not very user friendly. Very poor help links
8:19 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It used up 100% procesing power on my 3GHz Processsor
8:21 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It affected the resources available to my computer when I ran some new gaming software
8:23 PM UTC, October 16 2006

i couldn't send complete data packages
8:29 PM UTC, October 16 2006

8:41 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Not getting credit for units completed.
8:41 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Disliked the software, difficult to setup, used excessive system resources causing regular system crashes. I prefered the original client.
8:43 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It kept accessing an internet port almost continuously which in my opion is unecessary

8:57 PM UTC, October 16 2006
This is the entire reason I quit working on the SETI-home project. I hate the BOINC software.
9:08 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It crashed and lost all my scores - twice
9:10 PM UTC, October 16 2006
It was just too invasive software compared to the old software.
9:10 PM UTC, October 16 2006
its not cool any more. No stats comparing the speed of your machine to your friends. No cool screen saver.
9:12 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I formated the computer and I haven't bothered to install BOINC again.
9:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006
changed computers and from PC to MAC
9:21 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I switched to an Intel Mac and it was my impression at the time that BOINC wouldn't work.
9:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I did not want to install software that registered itself with Windows. I wanted to start it and stop it when I felt like it.
9:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
employer cut it off
9:28 PM UTC, October 16 2006
don't trust it

Formatee la camputadorea y me olvide de instalar BONIC
9:31 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Even when set to de-activate when the screen saver was off, it slowed my computer too much, sometimes to the point of crashing. Reminded me of the old Windows memory leaks on some screen savers and RealPlayer.
9:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
the slowdown was noticable
9:33 PM UTC, October 16 2006
boinc turned seti into a cpu hog, inspite of changing and saving new preferences
9:34 PM UTC, October 16 2006
it uses so much cpu resources that it heats up more than I would like

10:04 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was living overseas and had no internet access for a year
10:18 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Used too much Ram (over 100MB)
10:19 PM UTC, October 16 2006
BOINC stopped running
10:26 PM UTC, October 16 2006
and I never got credit for 13,000 hours of CPU time under my old account.
10:32 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Seti seemed to have reached a dead-end data wise.
10:40 PM UTC, October 16 2006
seti doubled my energybill to 600 euros. So I spend 300 euros on SETI. Trying to cut down on costs sorry...
10:41 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Reloaded OS and haven't reinstalled yet.
10:43 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was asked to confirm whether I really wanted to turn my computer off before being allowed to do so. I could not shut this annoying message down so I deleted the software.
10:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
switched pcs around and never got round to re-installing on my base unit.
10:47 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I was told the project ended
10:58 PM UTC, October 16 2006
Because the message boards are full of whining, backstabbing, imperialistic Wanna-be's who talk about everything BUT Seti.
11:06 PM UTC, October 16 2006
PC was formatted and I didn't reinstall.
11:07 PM UTC, October 16 2006
I felt I was being fooled around and I never volunteered for BOINC, just for SETI@home
11:09 PM UTC, October 16 2006
the BOINC server and other systems rarely worked
11:17 PM UTC, October 16 2006

3:23 AM UTC, October 17 2006
it would not let me quit in the middle of a data set and then pick up where it left off when I opened it again, unlike SETI@Home's old software

It was not compatable with the MS proxy server and our Mac.
1:15 PM UTC, October 17 2006
BOINC is cumbersome. Command line SETI was the way to go. Simple...no install and very little resources needed. I would run SETI on several computers if the old client or something similar was available.

it interfered with other PC accounts if i left it running on my account and another account was activated, i always had to stop it. And i seldom got WU's maybe because i joined several BOINC projects

boinc interfered with other scheduled background operations too much. Adding the option to BOINC to suspend itself when other user defined named threads/tasks were running could have fixed this, but i didn't consider it was something that the BOINC team would be interested in adding.

11:59 PM UTC, October 17 2006
Original Program was much easier
12:03 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Uses too much system rescources
12:10 AM UTC, October 18 2006
harddisk failure

アップデートさせたら使えなくなったから
12:17 AM UTC, October 18 2006
other computer burned up
12:22 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Took too long. By the time it completed a unit of work the unit had already been reassigned to and completed by another user. Thus, apparently I was never credited with completing any units.
12:27 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I liked running seti, but once boinc came it seemed I would be running other programs that I did not wish to run
12:29 AM UTC, October 18 2006
die bereits bearbeiteten SETI-Units nicht mit übernommen wurden.
12:31 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It would stop and not start another work unit, waisting time & power.
12:35 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I'm using the computing power for complex calculus
12:41 AM UTC, October 18 2006
car j aimais mieux le classique seti@home
12:47 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I don't like BOINC
12:48 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I was unable to carry over my stats from before Seti@Home started using BOINC
12:50 AM UTC, October 18 2006
no graph like Seti@home had, also couldnt find projects some of the time.
12:54 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I liked the original Seti software much better, it way much cooler as a screen saver
12:57 AM UTC, October 18 2006
computer crashed never reinstalled
1:00 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Computer Crash and never reinstalled
1:02 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it often failed to upload work units
1:06 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It got stuck such that it couldn't get a work packet because my version was out of date, but since I ran it in the background I never noticed the problem.
1:12 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Old PC no longer in use. Not installed on new PC Yet
1:18 AM UTC, October 18 2006
>5 years but crashed my computer and never re applied.
1:23 AM UTC, October 18 2006
My computer was too old to run the new BOINC about a year ago. Got a new one now.
1:32 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it is junk
1:38 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It was a resource hog compared to the previous client
1:40 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I am having a baby and had to get rid of my servers
1:47 AM UTC, October 18 2006
and it only worked for a few mins. then would stop and need to connect to the internet again.
2:05 AM UTC, October 18 2006
My poor old computer cannot road more the program...
2:07 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I need _smaller_ (less CPU) work units for Seti
2:12 AM UTC, October 18 2006
BOINC too resource-heavy when not in use
2:22 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Don't want to have to run it in start menu
2:29 AM UTC, October 18 2006
My wife believed that if aliens were discovered via my computer using SETI then they might take some horrible revenge. Plus she would just rather not know if they are out there because aliens freak her out. Is she crazy or what?
2:33 AM UTC, October 18 2006
The software was unstable.
2:39 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it consumed too much system resources.
2:48 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It runs as though it is taking for granted that I'm volunteering resources to SETI@Home. The original client worked as though you appreciated it; it was not obtrusive and clunky like BOINC (it got on my nerves), so I stopped participating after helping SETI@Home for 6 years...
2:49 AM UTC, October 18 2006
repeatedly analyzing old data
2:59 AM UTC, October 18 2006
My computer is serving as a server, so the idle moments are not guaranteed.
3:10 AM UTC, October 18 2006
burned image on screen
3:11 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I moved, lost my Hd and never reinstalled
3:12 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I enjoy helping in the search for ET, but I rathered the old software with the cool graphics and screensaver.
3:15 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it used too much processing power in Ubuntu. I still use it for
3:17 AM UTC, October 18 2006
folding at home
3:22 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I ACCIDENTLY DELETED THE PROGRAM, SO I DOWNLOADED IT AGAIN, BUT I COULD NOT GET IT TO RUN.
3:24 AM UTC, October 18 2006
liked the original Seti@home; can't stand boinc
3:27 AM UTC, October 18 2006
There was no CLI
3:34 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I wanted a more dedicated command line app. Did not like BOINC
3:42 AM UTC, October 18 2006
My computer got too old or was compromised in some way so that SETI at Home didn't work on it. I tried everything tech support suggested, but couldn't get it to work. That was a long time ago. I'll see if it works on my new computer.
3:48 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Constant communication problems with BOINC server
3:54 AM UTC, October 18 2006
haven't been reminded about this grid computing solution
3:56 AM UTC, October 18 2006
sleep mode
4:16 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Boinc couldn't transfer older SETI units for correct accounting
4:19 AM UTC, October 18 2006
SETI@home cancelled
4:26 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I wasn't seeing proper visual progress with it - I want to understand more of the number crunching on _my_ PC
4:40 AM UTC, October 18 2006
when i useing the computer,it runs ,it make my computer very slowly,i like the project ,and like to run when i don't use my computer.......
4:57 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I no longer have a desktop computer that I can dedicate to SETI
5:01 AM UTC, October 18 2006
couldn't limit it to use 40% of cpu
5:02 AM UTC, October 18 2006
used too much processor time
5:31 AM UTC, October 18 2006
i like the old way better
5:42 AM UTC, October 18 2006
linux builds seemed sloppy, so was computer management on web site side, computer is old, was taking a lot of time to accomplish package analysis, constanly have to deal with my cron job to do work or play games
6:01 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Concerns about system overheating
6:04 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Didn't like the "animation"
6:13 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It ate up system resources
6:25 AM UTC, October 18 2006
neuer pc auf der arbeit
6:39 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I had to continually start the program manually.
6:44 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I liked the old Seti screen saver
6:46 AM UTC, October 18 2006
BOINC lief nie so rund wie der alte SETI-Client. Insbesondere das automatische Verbinden beim hochfahren des Rechners wollte nicht klappen. Zudem war die neue Creditvergabe zu undurchsichtig.

7:54 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it was a pain in the ass compared to the original software
7:54 AM UTC, October 18 2006
GOt a new PC and forgot to re-instal it!
8:01 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Used too much CPU
8:23 AM UTC, October 18 2006
i did not like it compared to the previous one
8:29 AM UTC, October 18 2006
plus I like to see it scanning and Boinc you couldn't see this or I couldn't get it to do it. I prefered the old system of scanning it was much more user friendly.
8:30 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I attached to a project, but RARELY got any work
8:33 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I bought a new computer and forgot to downloaded new software
8:34 AM UTC, October 18 2006
It would not run as and when I wanted it to. The support was appalling. The changeover to Boinc appallingly handled
8:45 AM UTC, October 18 2006
used too much performance
8:56 AM UTC, October 18 2006
it was crappy compared to the old SETI@home
9:00 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Seemed to use to much computer power and kept affecting computer, I would really like to use old software version not BOINC
9:05 AM UTC, October 18 2006
The feedback it gave about work units was confusing. It appeared to be written for people who wrote BOINC, not people who just wanted to run SETI work units
9:19 AM UTC, October 18 2006

9:39 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Boinc hat mir zu viel CPU- Zeit in anspruch genommen, da ich in meiner Freizeit oft Spiele und ich da sowohl jedes bisschen RAM und CPU- Zeit gebrauchen kann! ^^
9:44 AM UTC, October 18 2006
boinc caused computer to run too slow, old seti prog was fine
9:44 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Formatted HDD and forgot to re-install + I wasn't keen on the 3D interface and it caused problems
9:45 AM UTC, October 18 2006

9:51 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Computer fan comes on at high CPU loads - very noisy
9:56 AM UTC, October 18 2006

10:04 AM UTC, October 18 2006
No 'real time' indication of how a work unit is progressing. BoincSpy is too darn complicated to set up!
10:12 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Boinc host programs just wasn't that good and caused problems, I missed the old SETI@Home runner.
10:14 AM UTC, October 18 2006
hard drive auto-distructed I lost the original software
10:14 AM UTC, October 18 2006
had a complete systems overhaul and never got seti@home reinstalled
10:23 AM UTC, October 18 2006
I simply can't run boinc on my pc due to lack of disk space, but i am working on it.
10:25 AM UTC, October 18 2006
you lied to us early on, sent old duplicate data for crunching, you lost my trust. liers go to hell
10:28 AM UTC, October 18 2006
no internet on my PC for the moment
10:30 AM UTC, October 18 2006
needlessly complex - not outright complicated to use
10:35 AM UTC, October 18 2006
BOINC is uttery dreadful compared with the original software. It's too bloated.
10:49 AM UTC, October 18 2006
no graphical screen saver like before
10:53 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Swapped system to Suse Linux
10:55 AM UTC, October 18 2006

11:11 AM UTC, October 18 2006
network communication problems
11:24 AM UTC, October 18 2006
after yeas of running seti, Boinc just up and stopped one day and I have been unable to get it going again
11:36 AM UTC, October 18 2006
Twice projects got as far as the present day and then reset themselves. I understand that it does this if the project results are not close to reality but i really wanted to see how the projections were going to go in the future and when they restarted it really annoyed me, so much so that the 2nd time i de-installed the software and haven't re-installed it again
11:40 AM UTC, October 18 2006
THE APPLICATION WAS A PAIN COMPARED TO ORIGINAL SETI PROG
11:41 AM UTC, October 18 2006
The original seti was easier and caused less problems.
11:49 AM UTC, October 18 2006
not fun anymore
11:50 AM UTC, October 18 2006

12:06 PM UTC, October 18 2006
its generally crap
12:06 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I got a virus, re-installed PC and forgot to reinstall
12:08 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it was gay
12:09 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It ran whether the screen saver was running or not.
12:12 PM UTC, October 18 2006
der neue Client für AlphaServer nicht verfügbar war/ist
12:16 PM UTC, October 18 2006
The software is buggy and isn't user friendly. It stopped working on it's own. And all this after a set up from hell to get it working in the first place.
12:17 PM UTC, October 18 2006
my computer is experiencing some weird problems and i plan to continue when I get a new computer
12:26 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I prefered the old interface
12:26 PM UTC, October 18 2006
heat problems
12:30 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Compared to SETI@HOME, BOINC is a pain
12:31 PM UTC, October 18 2006
1. sehr schwierig war ein Projekt einzubinden und 2. die CPU Last zu hoch war
12:31 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I have problem with my computer
12:44 PM UTC, October 18 2006
The Logo portion of the SETI@Home screen saver was causing burn-in on my computer display. A screen saver should NEVER contain static elements like that.
12:45 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I got tired of the screen saver!
12:53 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It crashed my OS
12:57 PM UTC, October 18 2006
communication problems
12:57 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I know aliens do exists. why still searching?
12:59 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I was advised not to run it on a laptop
1:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It caused my system to continuously crash
1:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
hardware failure, reason doesnt seem to be connected with the application.
1:01 PM UTC, October 18 2006
got a new computer and never got around to install it again
1:05 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It slowed down everything to an unexceptable degree. Preferred the screen saver as this took up minimal processing during working time
1:05 PM UTC, October 18 2006
after installing one of the updates it never ran again, so I removed it.
1:07 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I used it when it first came out but it crashed my new computer when I reinstalled there
1:09 PM UTC, October 18 2006
The screen saver never seemed to work properly.
1:30 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Pentium 4 laptop would heat up
1:37 PM UTC, October 18 2006
My computer is a P3-600 CPU computer, and it's so slow that it can't finish a unit before expiring. So I decide to resume calculating it only after I update my computer to a Core 2 Duo E6600. BTW, the unit time limit is so short now that BIONC can't take full advantage of all the computers over the world like mine.
1:46 PM UTC, October 18 2006
often problems when BOINC was connecting to your server, and I know that the problem was not my computer/network
1:48 PM UTC, October 18 2006
demanded too many system resources
1:52 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Screensaver is non-Mac compatible
1:56 PM UTC, October 18 2006
BOINC was awkward, irritating to use. The old SETI was elegant and simple. As much as I want to help SETI, I wasn't going to learn something new and play with a programmer-designed UI to learn it.
2:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
My computer was rebuilt and I forgot to re-install
2:05 PM UTC, October 18 2006
the linux version was very uninteresting
2:07 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I prefer non-GUI versions and more control over when I want it to run.
2:08 PM UTC, October 18 2006
sell PC
2:11 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It sucks! - the old SETI was great
2:12 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It reacted badly to Key board events

2:20 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Was not as visually effective as old SETI program
2:28 PM UTC, October 18 2006
3d visualizer was too resouce intensive. Liked old Seti@home visualiser.
2:33 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Boinc n'a aucun intérêt
2:36 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Preferia el software anterior para el SETI@Home, BOINC causaba problemas con un programa
2:38 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I aquired two resident virus programs in less than a week through the program
2:41 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Day to Day life got too busy.
2:43 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Too 'Commercial'. I want to run the OLD SetiAtHome.
2:45 PM UTC, October 18 2006

2:59 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it stopped and the progress was difficult to interpret
2:59 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Too many steps to get set up and running. And I work in a compuer related field! Keep the user interface simple!
3:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I got a new computer and didn't install the software
3:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Seti@ home started asking for money to support the cause, i was supporting the cause by giving them my computer. i found that ridiculous. i have switched to folding at home
3:02 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Took too much ressources
3:02 PM UTC, October 18 2006
could not connect to project anymore
3:16 PM UTC, October 18 2006
reformatted drive
3:18 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it just stopped working one day and I did not take the time to fix it.
3:20 PM UTC, October 18 2006
die software im gegensatz zum "alten" seti@home client sehr langsam wurde, den computer ausgebremst hat und nur unzufriedenstellend funktioniert hat
3:20 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it did not have the appearance of doing anything !
3:21 PM UTC, October 18 2006
linux not scored equally with windows systems.
3:23 PM UTC, October 18 2006
The softwareis too intrusive.
3:24 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I liked better the old seti@home
3:25 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It caused problems Both at work & home
3:31 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I plan on starting to run it again before the year is out.
3:32 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It's awful, please bring back the prior software
3:33 PM UTC, October 18 2006

3:38 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I tried installing it several times, but each time ended up with something that tried to turn on several times a second while I was running other things, and crashed my computer. Fix it, and I'd be delighted to run SETI@home again.
3:40 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I was using a university computer. I would run at home, but I am concerned about the performance hit on games (how transparent is "low priority"?).
3:43 PM UTC, October 18 2006
After 1 solid month of trying to report results and download new work, I removed it from my computer.
3:44 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Following a major system failure not re-installed on new system, to busy getting (personal) critical software up and running then forgot all about BOINC
3:48 PM UTC, October 18 2006
impersonal and boring
3:49 PM UTC, October 18 2006
The program did not have any way to run using only background processes. If it was on, it shut down every other function of the computer. Considering that it is supposed to act at least partially as a screensaver, this isn't acceptable. The setup was not even as robust as the original SETI@home software.
3:50 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I am now, but I built a new computer and forgot about re-installing BIONC, thanks for the email reminding me, ill get started again right away.
3:59 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I changed my computer
4:02 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it burnt my monitor, not a great thing in a screen saver.
4:02 PM UTC, October 18 2006
can't run it on my new laptop
4:05 PM UTC, October 18 2006
My home computer is down at the moment. I haven't forgotten SETI.
4:08 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I couldn't make it work, and I am a software engineer

4:29 PM UTC, October 18 2006
ich an Stelle von Seti@home jetzt Folding@home unterstütze (an meinem zweiten Rechner). Am Laptop läuft ständig der Lüfter, wenn ich einen BOINC Service laufen lasse, daher habe ich davon Abstand genommen.
4:30 PM UTC, October 18 2006
Never gave me credit for previous program

5:48 PM UTC, October 18 2006
just dont like Boinc
5:48 PM UTC, October 18 2006
switched to a new computer and forgot to reinstall/migrate BOINC
5:50 PM UTC, October 18 2006
didnt like the layout..prefer the old gui
5:50 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it would not run automatically as a service on WinXP PCs with multiple user logins

6:07 PM UTC, October 18 2006
bought a new pc
6:12 PM UTC, October 18 2006
It wasn't as easy as it was before BOINC took over SETI
6:21 PM UTC, October 18 2006
prefiero la version anterior
6:27 PM UTC, October 18 2006
and it didn't work correctly. Also network problems. Seti was better.
6:27 PM UTC, October 18 2006
it seemed like it was trying to get me to use my excess CPU power for just about every do-gooder project in the world, and I was only originally interested in seti@home (plus I have an older laptop and it slowed its performance considerably)
6:38 PM UTC, October 18 2006
the request for funds for SETI put me off

Hardware issues - will reinstall BOINC later
6:53 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I consider myself extremely PC-literate but BOINC defeated me! It was very user-unfriendly and after failing to get it to work properly with another project (human genome?, something Einstein-ish) gave up completely
7:02 PM UTC, October 18 2006
I had been running BOINC for over a year and you should have shown a number of completed units. My former computer crashed and I have never reinstalled BOINC as I now never leave my computer on unless I am using it.

I couldn't figure out how to use the software
8:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006
connect to internet via proxy and could not figure out how, very user unfriendly in trying to figure out what to do. That is why I stopped SETi, which is the only one I would support, also did not connect properly to download units on another pc... so I gave up and was fairly dissapointed, as the old SETI system worked great
8:00 PM UTC, October 18 2006

I could not find a way to prevent BOINC from using 100 % of my CPU. I was concerned it would overheat my machine and potentially cause a fire.
2:43 AM UTC, October 19 2006
Reconfiguring it for multiple projects appears impossible - the percentages can't be changed - and I won't run it under an XP admin account

There seemed to be a major problem somewhere, I completed a unit, I tried to send the results, but BOINC would not accept it and neither could I load up a new one. I tried to re-install the software to my compter but that would not work either, so I took the descion to take it off from my computer and then re-install it again at a later date and see if it work again for me. If you have any ideas as to what the problem was at that time, I would certainly welcome them. Regards Ian Iosson (ian.iosson@mac.com)

BOINC is a ludicrous piece of software designed by people with (bisarre) ideals rather than common sense.
11:52 AM UTC, October 19 2006
I have 10 compuuters - BOINC is too complicated and no longer appears as an interesting screen saver under OS X

2:06 PM UTC, October 19 2006
I feel that BOINC should use the least system resources as possible, it is one of the biggest reasons I stoped using BOINC. If I have a service that constantly runs in the background, it has to be very very low on my computers resources.

I didn't want it running all of the time.
10:04 PM UTC, October 19 2006
It didn't seem as stable as the old SETI stand-alone program

I felt that the Climate Change Experiment run with the BBC was far more useful to the world in general. Little green men are stuff of fairy stories. too much money is spent on useless space research - why do not the countries involved give that money to the starving of the world?
12:07 AM UTC, October 20 2006
Es gab Probleme mit meiner X800GTO Grafikkarte von PowerColor (AGP)
12:09 AM UTC, October 20 2006
it did not mesh well with the screen saver. It seemed to have a mind of its own and tried to compete with the screensaver.
12:15 AM UTC, October 20 2006
It kept crashing and I had to jump through a bunch of hoops to get it working right again. Give me my command line client for Windows XP please and I'll be back.
12:16 AM UTC, October 20 2006
changed Email address and could not log back into site as I forgot my password.

die software wollte nicht arbeiten
12:25 AM UTC, October 20 2006
If a project was finished, the data was not send for more than a week, sometimes even several weeks. With the old version Seti@home (which I liked), I sent data en received new data several times a day, so my pc's were always working for Seti. With Boinc they were standby for most of the time. I thought my data was not usefull enough anymore.

cannot get it to work because of new router
1:16 AM UTC, October 20 2006
Hat anscheinend nie Ergebnisse zurueckgeschickt. (Ich weiss, dass es manchmal laenger dauern kann, bis das passiert.) Hat eventuell mit der schlechten Netzverbindung aus China zu tun. Dann hat es (wahrscheinlich wegen eines Bedienfehlers) Monate von Arbeitsergebnissen geloescht, die noch nicht zurueck geschickt worden waren. Ziemlich frustrierend. Deshalb habe ich aufgehoert.

2:49 AM UTC, October 20 2006
Cuando cambiaron a usar BOINC perdieron todo mi score obtenido desde años atras, quede muy molesto por eso pero aún asi retome BOINC en la empresa pero el nuevo software requiere muchos puertos abiertos en comparacion con el antioguo y en la empresa no me autorizaron la salida por el firewall. y hasta ahi llego todo.

My company does not permit running BOINC (and similar) software
5:21 AM UTC, October 20 2006
It messes up other programs even if it's not active. It's not very compatible with my Windows 98 400mhz backup computer. I could never tell if I was sending and receiving info to seti even though I was sure it was working.
5:26 AM UTC, October 20 2006
it ruined my screen.... the visual never changed and burnt in my screen
5:36 AM UTC, October 20 2006

I didnt like it
11:27 AM UTC, October 20 2006
I have a nootbook and it made my CPU run at 100 % all the time making it run too hot. Otherwise I would like to run the program.
11:44 AM UTC, October 20 2006
My computers were running flat out, fans etc. going full blast, it needs a max. % cpu time throttle
11:45 AM UTC, October 20 2006
would not install on new computer now have another and will try again
11:53 AM UTC, October 20 2006
I moved to another country. Nothing wrong with boinc.
11:53 AM UTC, October 20 2006
BOINC is a worthless piece of bloated, misbehaving software. As long as SETI uses BOINC, I will never return.
11:55 AM UTC, October 20 2006
It wouldn't work properly and I got no response to my inquiries.
11:55 AM UTC, October 20 2006
nun ja, ich würde gerne das Rauchen auch akustisch wahrnehmen - geht denn das?
12:01 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Do not want to "cook" the cpu. Would like boinc to be limited to x%.
12:06 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I suspected it of causing problems and removed it for troubleshooting. It wasn't the problem, but I never re-installed.
12:28 PM UTC, October 20 2006

I stopped Seti becuaseit was processing old data. I changed to Seti beta and stopped when that beta finished. I may join Astropulse when that begins testing. I liked beta because my 10 computers made a big difference there. With 12 computers now running flat out the electricity consumption increases dramatically with Seti!
1:04 PM UTC, October 20 2006
it didn't connect to climateprediction, and seti@home started to complete bad results
1:10 PM UTC, October 20 2006
need to focus on my studies.

I stopped using SETI@home after I noticed that you were just resending the data chunks (so we continued to feel useful) while you were waiting for more new data. At that point, I decided to use the CPU cycles for projects that were really using them productively.
1:49 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Was always freezing and crashing, with problems connecting with the server, even if I disconnected the firewall
1:51 PM UTC, October 20 2006

2:15 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I received messages to stop using the software, that the work units were too old when received.
2:16 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I like the old version graphics better
2:19 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It had too many bugs
2:21 PM UTC, October 20 2006
When I checked my results, 75% of the time it would report that there was some kind of error with the data I returned. Also, my company has started to monitor upload and download quantities per employee. I need to minimize usage.
2:31 PM UTC, October 20 2006

Boinc was removed in the process of elliminating possible software which caused interruptions in a very resource intensive application, which I am still using.
3:11 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Istarted working on other PC (laptop) and only occasionally used the desktop, on which SETI runs.

5:28 PM UTC, October 20 2006
for some reason my old laptop randomly freezes when running BOINC. Sorry.
5:35 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I changed my computer and BOINC (the new SETI) was using too much of my internet resources.
5:38 PM UTC, October 20 2006

5:45 PM UTC, October 20 2006
because I received a new PC and couldn't get the software from the website to reload with out paying
5:46 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I switched to a new OS and I forgot to re-install
5:48 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It stopped making progress on its own.
6:23 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I preferred the original (c1999) graphics
6:24 PM UTC, October 20 2006
They switched computers on me at work
6:26 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Bilgisayarımı yeniden yapılandırdım ve BOINC'i henüz yeniden yüklemedim.
6:32 PM UTC, October 20 2006
forgot password and have no idea about account key
6:32 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I only wanted it to run after 20 minutes of inactivity. But it always ran. I mainly ran SETI because of the cool classic screensaver, I hate the new 3d one.
6:35 PM UTC, October 20 2006
zur Zeit so gut wie nie zu Haus bin
6:46 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I didn't like the fact that there was no option to only run while the screensaver was active like the older version of SETI@Home. Running in the background constantly unless I manually disabled it affected too many other programs I run.
6:51 PM UTC, October 20 2006
my laptop fan is failing

Did not like that the software would use my internet connection with out permission. Not enough user control.
7:25 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Used too much prosessor time when I wanted it. It should wait until the computer isn't busy.
7:34 PM UTC, October 20 2006

I updated my computer to xp service pack 2 and have not been able to sign on to grid.org since
8:21 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I lost interest because I do not like it. It is not like the old SETI Interface. It is also very hard to understand and to manage.
8:29 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It used 100% CPU even when I wanted to work on my computer
8:32 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Utilise trop de ressources, ne permettant pas � d'autres logiciels de tourner en m�me temps
8:42 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I do not like the Boinc set up
8:44 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Bionic was unreliable
8:54 PM UTC, October 20 2006
preferences do not work; thus it starts always even when I'm busy on the computer, and it uses 100%cpu time despite set at 50
9:02 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Point structure and user interface changed so I dumped it
9:02 PM UTC, October 20 2006

Problems w/ my internet connection - upgraded AOL Dec. 31/05 & my P/C can no longer find the modem. I've had no time or money to get it fixed. All responses below are based on what I WAS doing when I had access.
10:15 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It consumed too many resources.
10:27 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I bought a new computer and never had a chance to get it until now.
10:34 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Boinc was bloated. I want to help Seti and Seti only. I want a seti-only screensaver.
10:39 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I have upgraded at least twice and never reloaded to software.
10:52 PM UTC, October 20 2006
it uses too much calculating power when doing something else and it is not enough configurable it works all the time instead when the screensaver starts
11:07 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It used too many system resources even when not in screen saver mode
11:13 PM UTC, October 20 2006
took up too much recources on my computer
11:18 PM UTC, October 20 2006
It took up too much processing power
11:21 PM UTC, October 20 2006
it never seemed to work well
11:26 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Problems with my Hard Disk. I lost start-up partition
11:41 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Each job took too long to complete because my computer was going to sleep when it should have been running boinc; not boinc's fault.
11:50 PM UTC, October 20 2006
I upgraded to a new computer and have not installed BIONIC on it.
11:58 PM UTC, October 20 2006
the old packs were small and easy to download
11:59 PM UTC, October 20 2006
Everything stopped on Seti for about a week and Blogs said Seti was stopping collecting data
12:00 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Lost all of my prior scans and I do not like the interface. Not at all user friendly

12:19 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I used to like the old seti@home more
12:28 AM UTC, October 21 2006
always runs on boot
12:43 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Used too much CPU
12:48 AM UTC, October 21 2006

heard you guys were shutting down home ivolment
12:56 AM UTC, October 21 2006
switched to laptop with less power
1:00 AM UTC, October 21 2006
My computer became infected with a virus and wiped out the hard drive
1:10 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Went back to seti@home v 3.11, because I could not see what was happening and security is an issue for me. Could not see any progress. There did not seem to be a user option of which projects my computer was working on.
1:22 AM UTC, October 21 2006
800Mhz PowerBook went into meltdown running the screensaver app. Everything slowed down drastically.
1:24 AM UTC, October 21 2006

1:39 AM UTC, October 21 2006
two programs of BOINC would run at startup, which eventually got on my nerves
2:08 AM UTC, October 21 2006
cpu overheating, installing more fans is on my to do list.
2:12 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Your system kept telling me of errors with my system
2:12 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I much preferred the old Seti@Home interface. The BOINC software seemed to be a little intrusive for me. Go back to the origonal
2:30 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I forgot. really, I got a new PC
2:33 AM UTC, October 21 2006
The forum members were rude to me when I asked for help. They seemed to hate the fact that I was a seti classic user that didn't switch to BOINC as soon as it started.

3:05 AM UTC, October 21 2006
i want the ability to set limits on CPU usage
3:27 AM UTC, October 21 2006
THe massive drain on my computer's resources made it very slow, even when the screen saver was not running.
3:35 AM UTC, October 21 2006
got confusing....
3:37 AM UTC, October 21 2006
bought a new computer
3:38 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Wear and tear on the CPU
3:45 AM UTC, October 21 2006

3:57 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I was under the impression I would have to start paying for my continued participation
4:07 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Used to much processor
4:33 AM UTC, October 21 2006
When rebooting, the software would not load the SETI@Home and I would have to go in and manually set it up, even though It had been set up to run automatically in my preferences
5:07 AM UTC, October 21 2006

5:19 AM UTC, October 21 2006

6:39 AM UTC, October 21 2006
It made my computer require the fan to run continuously and caused it to get too hot.
7:06 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Would rather not have another program running in the backgroung
7:11 AM UTC, October 21 2006

7:13 AM UTC, October 21 2006
My old computer died, and my laptop doesn't have the software on it and I've lost all Info as to reinstalling it
7:15 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I have been doing SETI for many years, under "mark@radon.demon.co.uk" there was no way for this to be credited across, so lost motivation
7:20 AM UTC, October 21 2006
takes up too many resources, does not run as independent as the original
7:49 AM UTC, October 21 2006
used a lot of CPU when I eeded it for other programs
8:03 AM UTC, October 21 2006
It used to much cpu, caused my fans to be on constantly
8:44 AM UTC, October 21 2006
After I moved I changed my pc so I forgot to start again.
8:54 AM UTC, October 21 2006
its a sys hog,rubish old seti ruls
9:00 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I was running SETI, but when it moved to BIONIC there were difficulties that made it more trouble than I was prepared to be bothered with
9:20 AM UTC, October 21 2006
my internet provider has charged me for downloading a huge amount for two months.
9:23 AM UTC, October 21 2006

9:40 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Hard drive crash and never installed it again
9:47 AM UTC, October 21 2006
It overheated my NEW 250GB hard drive - had to buy a new disk!
9:59 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I only want to use it for seti@home but it is too large/heavy due to its multi-purpose target (serving different projects at once)
10:01 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Was running on machine which was too slow. It was never finishing before the deadline. I reconfigured my home network and eventually moved it to my new linux setup. So this was a was running / stopped / restarted when reminded and had better hardware

could link old seti account to new one; too complicted as it did work when I tried.
11:22 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I didn't like the interface.
11:22 AM UTC, October 21 2006
unübersichtlich
11:34 AM UTC, October 21 2006

11:35 AM UTC, October 21 2006

11:48 AM UTC, October 21 2006
Mac -Intel - way too long per WU, and lost WUs. Top of range computer should be better than this
11:58 AM UTC, October 21 2006
I could not connect to Seti, the software just stopped working at home anymore so I uninstalled bonic - I found it troublesome and difficult to understand I have been with Seti for around 10 years - pity.
12:06 PM UTC, October 21 2006
have not used the computer it is intalled in
12:17 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I had no sense of work being done as with the previous visual. Moreover, although I loaded three times I could not get the program to account for my many units of many years. Finally, the interface is tedious and dull.
12:17 PM UTC, October 21 2006
BOINC was taking too much ressources
12:24 PM UTC, October 21 2006
never clear to see whether it was running in the background when i did not want it to - seemed that changeing settings didnt do too much
12:48 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Older Seti client worked better...
1:02 PM UTC, October 21 2006
uses too much cpu power
1:07 PM UTC, October 21 2006
you wanted to charge me to use it
1:21 PM UTC, October 21 2006
It stopped downloading packets and would never connect
1:39 PM UTC, October 21 2006
it used too much CPU power
1:50 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I am running Linux more now and have not looked for BOINC for it. (Suse 64)

2:17 PM UTC, October 21 2006
i didn't like th grpahics, the old seti at home screen saver was much nicer
2:19 PM UTC, October 21 2006
CPU 100 % zu viel
2:20 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Much more involved than the original program.

2:29 PM UTC, October 21 2006
It let spyware and viruses into my computer.
2:31 PM UTC, October 21 2006
it is obnoxiously invasive, and complicated what used to be a very simple process
2:39 PM UTC, October 21 2006
It would run fine for a period of time, then would come up with "no project attached". Re-attachind Seti@home was a complicated process & not always successful
2:42 PM UTC, October 21 2006
it was running my cpu at 100% useage all the time
2:44 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Computer crash unrelated to BOINC
2:51 PM UTC, October 21 2006
my comp died--nothing to do with SETI@home
2:55 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Weil ich es nicht auf meinem aktuellen Computer installiert habe.
3:00 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Hard Drive crashed
3:09 PM UTC, October 21 2006
my pc is broken, somithng with the mainboard, not because of boinc ;)
3:20 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Ich finde die CPU Rechenleistung zu schwach. GPU-Projekte sind faszinierender.
3:21 PM UTC, October 21 2006
es machte mein PC langsamer?kannes sein ?
3:26 PM UTC, October 21 2006
BOINC is a bad client, when compared to the original SETI@home
3:28 PM UTC, October 21 2006
when everything changed I couldn't get it to work again
3:36 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Weil es mich genervt hat, dass man BOINC nicht so einstellen kann, dass es wirklich nur rechnet, wenn der Bildschirmschoner aktiviert wird. Dieses ständige rechnen im Hintergrund stört mich. Deswegen rechne ich überhaupt nicht mehr mit.
3:43 PM UTC, October 21 2006

4:02 PM UTC, October 21 2006
the program boinc uses cpu resourses,there 4 i´m forced do shut it down every time i want to play games,it should only run (program and project)only on screensaver,and not all the time!
4:07 PM UTC, October 21 2006
It's not as fun to participate with as the old software.

5:40 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Uses 100% of the CPU all the time, I love my computer and don't want to killit running your Boinc.
5:51 PM UTC, October 21 2006
SETI didn't offer any work and the other projects had only multi-week work units
5:57 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Lost my Computer
6:05 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Bonic cut me off.
6:09 PM UTC, October 21 2006
The old software was much better, used less resources, more reliable, more idiot-proof
6:17 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Didn't like the boinc front end program,
6:21 PM UTC, October 21 2006
boinc erkannte kubuntu 64-bit platform nicht mehr nach update
6:21 PM UTC, October 21 2006

10:27 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I liked your old program better
10:32 PM UTC, October 21 2006
It used too much system resources on my old computer.
10:41 PM UTC, October 21 2006

10:48 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I had too many problems getting it to connect and either upload or download data.
10:58 PM UTC, October 21 2006
switched computers
11:02 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I had other computer problems and too little time to be bothered with BOINC
11:09 PM UTC, October 21 2006
it became a BOINC project instead of a standalone SETI project.
11:13 PM UTC, October 21 2006
das programm immer ressourcen gefressen hat selbst wenn der Bildschirmschoner nicht lief.
11:15 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Ich möchte gerne sehen, was auf meinem Rechner passiert. Für die Klssik-Version gab es einen Bidschirmschoner (KSetiSaver) bei Boinc gibt es den noch immer nicht für Linux!
11:17 PM UTC, October 21 2006
Kept freezing up computer mem
11:29 PM UTC, October 21 2006
I would rather have it run as a very low priority background process rather than as a screen saver

I turned off my extra PC's
4:29 AM UTC, October 22 2006
I was unable to use my computer effectively while running boinc and I cannot leave my internet connection active while away from the computer so that made it pretty much impossible to finish data by the due date.

The work file and result file is too large for my office HTTP proxy (always failed in upload/download) where I don't have such issue with SETI@home client in good old days.
9:56 AM UTC, October 22 2006
I don't like the way it looks, imho, it looks very windows'98-like , it should have a minimal but very slick interface, something like APPLE does with all of its products, remember, less is more.
10:11 AM UTC, October 22 2006
I restored my system and I forgot to install seti@home.
10:19 AM UTC, October 22 2006
BOINC's interface is, simply put, fucked up bad. I would VERY MUCH like to participate if I can use the old SETI client.

8:59 PM UTC, October 22 2006
you guys couldn't find the 1000 + hours of processing time when i tried to convert over from the old system; further, there was no way to contact anyone to look into the matter. if you were that interested in the little folks who want to help, you would have been more careful with the old accounts, and would have a contact email for folks with problems.

It would rarely work correctly, the old client was perfect, and i used it for years beforehand, when the new software came out i had trouble transferring my old user over, so created a new one, that kindof annoyed me.. and then had nothing but problems with the new client, i would love to return but until the software is more stable and easier to use i cant see that happening

my pc crashed and i couldn't recover the files
1:44 AM UTC, October 24 2006
I'd check to see what it was doing and it was sitting idle, trying to connect to a server and had exceeded its work units.... nothing got done so it was a complete waste
1:46 AM UTC, October 24 2006
it was unreliable - for years SETI just ran; I got updates, did the work, ran it on up to three computers - after BOINC the overhead of getting it running and keeping it running wasn't worth it.
1:54 AM UTC, October 24 2006
i liked the old one

I couldn't stop the process on my G5 iMac and restart it w/out being on the internet. Then it would start downloading a new job before I'd completed the last one!

5:33 AM UTC, October 24 2006
reloaded OS a few times because of viruses and didn't reinstall SETI because I heard a couple years ago the SETI program was shutting down.

10:32 AM UTC, October 24 2006
the program set very tight schedule times. They are only achievable when my computer runs 24/7. However, it runs only during working hours, so it is simply imposible to meet the deadlines. Sorry folks, it doesn't work that way.

I didn't feel like it, or I, was doing anything. I was also concerned about security and using up too much (memory?).

2:44 PM UTC, October 24 2006
The screen saver is boring. The old seti at least looked like you were doing something. Boinc running accross the screen just does not make it.

The main excitment of pre boinc seti was lost - there are no lists of people who joined on the same day (or same month/year etc) and thus you can't compare yourself to your peers only to one or 2 very top players who are probably teams anyway. The scoring cannot be understood by anyone - one project =1 not 32.7 one time and 48.6 the next thank you very much.

Did not seem to work correctly on any of the three machines where I installed it. Sometimes it could not download new worked units, sometimes it processed them but could not send the results. Finally I just uninstalled it. Note: I ran the Seti@home program before BOINC for months and months without problems

I couldn't get it to only work when the screensaver was on. It slowed my PC down to an unusable crawl. I'd just bought a new PC when I installed BOINC for the first time. I thought the PC was bad. After a month of frustration, I figured out that it was BOINC. I tried to get it to only run while I was not at the PC but it refused to cooperate, so sadly, I was forced to uninstall.
7:03 PM UTC, October 25 2006
always failed to start at bootup, manual start ok,taking too much cpu

The original SETI@home was simpel to install and run and to understand the resukts and worked better together with my computer. I takes many downloads and steps to install Bonic witch takes to much processor power and does not give the ticks back fast enougth. I had a constant feeling thet Bonic was slowing me down so I have it paused all the time.
4:30 PM UTC, October 28 2006

I didn't get full credit from the old SETI@home project
8:08 PM UTC, November 06 2006
BOINC nicht mehr als Screensaver funktioniert hat
8:11 PM UTC, November 06 2006
neue Software hat zwar zu bearbeitendes File geholt, aber nicht bearbeitet wurde. Das ist aber schon mind. 1 Jahr her. Nur aus Erinnerung. Seither nicht mehr probiert, ob neue Version verfügbar. Zu kompliziert mit den vielen anderen Projekten. Seti@home alte Version war klar, wozu ich die Software installiere, die neue bietet zu viele Möglichkeiten. Fazit: Mit dieser Software muss ich zu viele Einstellungen selber und erst noch richtig machen. Würde gerne meine Computerzei zur Verfügung stellen. So artet das aber in Arbeit aus, wenn ich dann noch in Foren Hilfe suchen muss, um sie zum Laufen zu bringen.

Your program is BULL SHIT!! I thought you were user friendly like before but I am sorely mistaken. If this is how you treat people who used Seti at Home before I hope your funding comes to a screeching halt. As far ai I'm concerned it is misapropritation of OUR tax payers and private funding. I pray it falters and collapses....

It should start when screensaver starts, not at PC power up
5:57 PM UTC, November 11 2006
when i wanted to close the program, it stayed running hidden. i had to go into running processes to kill the app. a bit iffy if you ask me.

SETI had too few jobs for the BOINC client at the time. Felt it was a waste of time and electricity to process the same three jobs.
4:14 AM UTC, November 29 2006
The nice community pages and your individual 'performance' vs those from the year/month that you joined disappeared - it simply wasn't fun anymore. The BOINC client wouldn't update the server regularly and overall it was not fun/interesting any more and a pain to deal with the new client. I've deleted the client and unless and until you recreate the old style SETI community, I'm done with it all.
4:36 PM UTC, November 29 2006
Biinc keeps polling the internet every second or so and the screen saver wants internet access?

I still have "older" equipment on hand that I use for the project (e.g. IBM R31 Notebook 512MB RAM). The old type win32 commandline client was lighter than the new BOINC client - it killed my machine... Any "light" win32 clients available again?

I never seemed to complete units before they expired.
4:29 PM UTC, December 16 2006
ich eine Menge Probleme hatte da ich Win98 benutze. Das Umschalten zwischen den Projekten funktionierte nicht richtig. Workunits wurden nicht richtig abgearbeitet und die Umschaltung zwischen den einzelnen projekten funktionierte auch nicht (Boinc 4.1x) Zweiter grund, weil mir nicht mehr die gesamtrechenzeit in stunden bei seti angezeigt wurde. über diese zeit habe ich die betriebszeit meines rechners wunderbar ablesen können. Bei neuen komponenten hatte ich diese zeiten immer notiert.

it keep having problems connecting. I have internet cable, so it could connect really easy. But for so reason it wouldn't all the time. I was running 5 user account on my computer. So intill I (or you can help me)can fix this I wont run the program. Plus the data pack I was running from the old seti@home program what happened to it?
11:49 PM UTC, January 07 2007
I sent in a completed batch, and SETI says I never sent it in.
11:42 PM UTC, January 08 2007
Boinc keeps banging the internet every second or less. To much traffic for no work done.
7:07 AM UTC, January 09 2007
I did not like BOINC compared to the old SETI@HOME program
7:58 PM UTC, January 09 2007

BBC climate would take 5050hrs or ~2yrs. and now its over. The linux BOINC has issues. Most BOINC project websites aren't newbie friendly. and generally are poor websites: difficult to wrench the useful info out.

There is no official linux 64-bit client

SETI@home in more down than running
1:31 AM UTC, February 18 2007
All my hours of computing were reset and I lost intrest in starting the whole thing over again (certificates for # of work units returned, etc.).

Also, it did not recognize my previously completed units (which aggravated me GREATLY! You lost me that day..

i didn't see what it was accomplishing
5:16 PM UTC, February 24 2007
It is installed on my laptop which used to be my only connection to the internet. I now work for a school district and rarely use my laptop. However, I AM at this moment updating it and plan to use it at work. Thus, I'll be active again on the Boing site.
4:13 AM UTC, February 26 2007
I didn't like being forced out of SETI command-line.
