I have my prefs set to not run when my laptop is on batteries. But it doesnt work. It runs all the time regardless of power supply. Anyone have a clue how to fix it?

Check under the BOINC Manager "Commands" Menu - do you have it set to "Run always" or "Run based on preferences"?

Thanks, that fixed it!

If anyone else is having this problem, right click on the boinc icon to find this option. Don't go through the boinc toolbar attach account manager.
