There's a new checkbox option at the bottom of the "My Profile" page.
----------------------------------------"BOINC Show Hosts". The help hasn't been updated to reflect the BOINC info (of which this is the only modifiable option). Anybody know what it does? It's off by default. YES, I've enabled it. But I don't know what I'd expect it to do. -Troy [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Nov 11, 2005 3:04:54 PM] |

That button will cause your user id to be exported with the hosts in the BOINC xml stats export. These files are used by some external sites such as:

Having it off also prevents someone from getting a look at who owns those machines on the site here, or linking from your account page to your machines on this site.
