Eintein at home has disappeared from my BOINC manager. When I try to reattach to the project, it tells me my account is invalid, even though I have had my account key emailed to me 3 times to check it.

Invalid account key

Hi Janamie,
Are you using the correct url?
http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/
Are you trying to type the account key or are you copying and pasting it directly from the email you recieved.
If you are pasting it, be sure you copy only the key and not any extra spaces at the begining or end.
I usually place the url and account key in a text file and place a shortcut to it on my desktop for quick access.

Richard

Check for spaces/newlines and other spacy characters during copy&paste.
