You have probably seen hints here and there that we are launching something new. For those of you who have configured your Windows agent in any unusual way (e.g. running as a service, pre-logon screen saver, scheduled task, udmon, or some other not officially supported way), please keep an eye on your agent's behavior this weekend to make sure it continues to function properly. Depending on any of many possible Windows, Firewall, and other settings, you might get pop-ups, paused agents, or agents that keep rapidly and repeatedly going back to the server trying to download new work, but failing in some way. Hopefully your agents won't have any problems. However if they do, you may need to run them in the foreground until they start operating correctly. If not, please check the relevant window and firewall settings. Otherwise, reinstalling them should usually work. Thanks for your patience and contribution!!
