Hi Lordlous,
This is a frequent problem, though it has many causes. Here is a page about the 'Agent Paused' problem: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/cause.html
In no particular order, the 3 main causes are:
1) minimum requirements not met. See http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewTopic.do?shortName=minimumreq
Virtual memory can be a problem on some old systems because Rosetta needs 200 MB, and sometimes people have set a small fixed size for virtual memory and forgotten that they have a limit.
2) Security programs: See http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1804
This links to a number of threads with people working through problems.
3) Connection problems: It sounds as though you are connecting so this is probably not it. But we have several pages on this, starting at http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewTopic.do?shortName=netconn

If nothing seems to fit your problem, then tell us about your computer system, connection to the Internet and the security programs that you have running on it. (firewall and anti-virus, we do not seem to have problems with anti-spyware programs.)

Glad to have you with us. There are a lot of people available to help advise you on weekends.

Lordlous --

Here are the minimum system requirements:

At least a 200MHz Intel Pentium™ processor or equivalent
At least 128 MB RAM (with virtual memory enabled)
600 MB Hard Disk Drive with at least 50 MB available for use
The ability to display 8-bit graphics at 800x600 resolution
An Internet connection with minimum 40 kbps speed
Operating System: Windows 98, ME, 2000 or XP

As mycrofth stated earlier, this may be found using the Help facility from the button on the bar above at http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewTopic.do?shortName=minimumreq. Your system comes up a bit short on real memory and, I would recommend about 512 MB of virtual memory as well.

Maybe i should do so..

I found an interesting thread on the forum:

http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1845

It is describing exactly my problem....

The only thing which is different, is that my CPU is 266 Mhz...
So....It should work...but it doesn't.

At WorldCommunityGrid we tuned our work units to average shorter times, a few months back, so that has helped for slower machines. However, your machine does not meet the minimum requirements for memory. Also, your virtual memory maximum would have to be larger as well. Rosetta allocates about 200MB of virtual memory, even thought the working set size is typically only 25MB. A good rule of thumb is to add at least 200MB to the maximum virtual memory size (paging/swap file size) you already run with.
