I recently started accepting work again from Einstein and Predictor, and for BOTH projects I have WUs that have been "downloading" for the past 2 days.

There is nothing in the transfers tab, and the message sequence for both was the same (but no longer available due to a restart)

General gistt of messages:
Requesting 48600s of work from EAH
Connecting to EAH
Connection successful

THAT'S IT. Nothing about downloading unit XXXYYYZZZ, but when I try to connect again, I get

2005.09.12 9:48:33|Einstein@Home|Sending scheduler request to http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi
2005.09.12 9:48:33|Einstein@Home|Reason: Requested by user
2005.09.12 9:48:33|Einstein@Home|Requesting 0 seconds of work, returning 0 results
2005.09.12 9:48:34|Einstein@Home|Scheduler request to http://einstein.phys.uwm.edu/EinsteinAtHome_cgi/cgi succeeded

I've tried to use the abort button, but it does nothing.

Does anyone have any suggestions of either
a) how to make Einstein (and/or predictor) send me the units it thinks I already have.
b)How to convince BOINC that I don't have these units.

Any help would be great. Thanks!!!
