Hello,

This is to report that BOINC 5.5.4 for Windows does not report completed work units from the World Community Grid project nor download new units or give credit for completed units.

The solution is to re-install the official version, BOINC 4.4.9 for Windows.

BOINC 5.5.4 is an alpha version of the new BOINC. It is being rewritten almost constantly. There are some bigger bugs in it, so it shouldn't be used by everyone. Only by those who want to test it and then comments to it should be posted on the BOINC Alpha email list.

BOINC 5.4.9 is the last stable release client which should be use by everyone else. The 4 in the middle says it is a release client. When the middle number is odd, it is always a development version with all its nooks and crannies. Development versions are expected to have problems.
