I got stuck at 10 WU's for weeks and weeks, even after uninstalling and reinstalling several times. That's one of the biggest reasons I ended up dropping out.

Not sure if this is the cause of the problem, but there is a 3-day limit on work units. IOW, if you don't complete the work unit within 72 hours, you don't get credit for it, since it's considered lost and the work gets reassigned to someone else.

It used to be 2 days, but was increased when the DNA_binding_mimics were released.

Well, I wanted to see if my server messed things up, because when I set it up to fold under the same username, that's when my stats stopped going up. So I uninstalled it from the server, and uninstalled and reinstalled it on my machine. Unfortunately, after a week, I'm about 16 frames into a WU of dna_binder_mimic.

scarier&gt; Don't know if you've noticed, but you're up to 51 work units now. http://www.aliensoup.com/ubb/smilies/smile.gif

The newest version of Electron Magnet displays the time and date that the work unit must be returned by in order to be counted.
You can download it from http://homepages.waymark.net/~lperr...download/em.zip and it has a lot of other nifty features as well.
