I have 2 other projects running other then this one, and this one actually uses the most resources but lately I have been getting this message from the project. I tried resetting and restarting and it works but only some of the time to get only one WU and then it happens again. I'm running this project on a powerbook plugged in 24/7 and the other computer I disconnected because of errors. I have the 4.67 beta version but most of the results have been validated and successful.

Any ideas on how to get it up and running again like it use to.

P.S. Once I posted this message I realized that the message I was reading in BOINC was being cut off and now I have read the whole thing and its up and running again

The project is no longer running S4 WU's (Albert app). That is why you must remove the app_info file from your BOINC/Projects/Einstein folder. Doing so will allow you to download the new S5 (Einstein) application and get new work.

Edit: Didn't see your "P.S." when I began writing this.
