I installed BOINC with E@H yesterday on my laptop. It ran fine then. However, when BOINC started today it didn't get to work but tried to connect to localhost instead. It doesn't establish a connection, and Windows says it doesn't respond when I close it.
I tried pinging einstein.phys.uwm.edu, but it can't find the host any further than uwm.edu. Connecting to other addresses works just fine. Could this be some server side problem?

Check out the Einstein@Home Beta Test under More Information on the E@H home page.

Please ignore my other two messages below! I intended to post on another thread and somehow got pointed to this one. I apologize.

This is odd. It's all

This is odd. It's all functioning properly now; apparently it was a problem only yesterday. Very odd.
