In the results for one of my computers, it shows that I have 9 WU's in progress. One of them is recent (my computer is crunching it right now), and the other 8 were supposedly sent several days ago, but when I check my client they are no where in sight. This baffles me, but it may be related to my recent change of "Connect to network about every - 0.01 days" (so it gets updated frequently). If anyone has any information about this please let me know.
Here is a link for the Results:

[EDIT]
Just for laughs, check out one of my computers I used to run Seti on, that now runs Rosetta. (switched everything to R@H) [HINT - check the upload/download rates]

hi cloaked chaos

cool handle ;-)

The Ghost WU problem is well known. It is an issue for BOINC rather than Rosetta.

It will not cause you much problem, the only issue is that when each of the ghosts times out you may lose 1 off your quota. But every time you send back a valid result, your quota doubles (up to the max), so even the quota issue is a minor irritant, not a major problem.

You mentioned SETI, I guess it was SETI classic - if you'd been BOINCing for a while on any BOINC project, including BOINC SETI, you'd have seen this before.

So there is no need to be scared of ghosts ;-)

Merry Christmas
