Hi Sekerob!

Here is my result status. As you can see, the 4th is still in progress, but #3 is done and valid! biggrin

These are 4 different work units assigned to 'dendell'. The one before and the one after your 'error' result completed all fine, which is positive. The 4th you are likely crunching this moment.

If u go to the RS pages and click on the bolded WU, u should get a list of the 4 or more copies send out to the different PC's in the quorum. That's the one i was looking for. That tells u if anyone else who had a copy had a problem too which than points to more towards a WU problem for all, or a local problem on your PC.

You had this event, which is not good at all:

2007-03-22 10:43:49 [World Community Grid] Reason: Unrecoverable error for result faah1419_d219n671_x2BPW_00_1 (Incorrect function. (0x1) - exit code 1 (0x1))

As Didactylos writes, if precautions are taken and it was incidental, little can be done about it.
