(moderation:
This is likely a dumb question, quite possibly, PEBKAC. I am getting the message "BOINC is currently suspended" as my screensaver, yet the BOINC Manager seems to indicate that there is nothing suspended.

7/19/2005 7:58:41 AM||Remote control not allowed; using loopback address".
Suggestions?
Thanks.

I had the same problem. I was unable to fetch workunits from both Seti@home and Einstein@home. I was not running benchmarks or anything, or had changed my preference.

Good guess, but no. It's a PC, not a laptop. I was sure that I set some preferences when I first got BOINC installed, but my messages are saying that there are no prefs set; using defaults. Even if my prefs were reset, would that cause BOINC to be suspended? That seems an unlikely default action to me...
Try right-clicking on the

Try right-clicking on the boinc taskbar icon and choosing "Run Always". If the screensaver shows graphics then it's something in your preferences.
