Just wondering if your PC meets the spec set by the WCG?
----------------------------------------# A Windows PC with a Pentium 550MHz or faster processor # 250 MB of RAM or more # 50MB of free hard disk space The other possibility is McAffee Parental controls which show these kind of symptoms Let us know how you get on Dave  |

what happens when you try to connect? any messages, or attempted downloading?

also, try setting to 'HPF only'. if that works, good, and you would need to add more RAM memory for the 'aids' units.

Here are the requirements: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewTopic.do?shortName=minimumreq
Notice that HPF requires much less memory than FightAIDS@Home. |
