Account problem...need help

Hello everyone,

I am having trouble setting up an account with SETI@HOME and
wonderong if anyone has any idea what the problem is. After I fill
out the form to initialize an account, a -26 error appears, which says
that it cannot connect to the server, even though the website says
that the server is up and running. Please if anyone has an idea that
would be great. btw...it has been like this for 3 weeks now. Thanks

Are you trying to create an account with the original S@h, or with
the new BOINC-based version?

I've been having a terrible time getting results returned to the
original S@h lately; had as many as 98 backed up at one time; the
SETI Queue log keeps showing "Connection reset" errors. I don't
know if this is related to your account creation problem or not,
but I suspect it is.

As the original S@h is not going to be running much longer, you'd
probably be better off starting with the BOINC version; try:
