Is this right?

Its the first time I have seen it look like this. Is there something wrong with it? It usually has only one grey and the rest coloured

Re: Is this right?

That's not right. But is it progressing at all?

Re: Is this right?

I know about the lettering, its some sort of glitch they havent ironed out yet... It is progressing. Its the shortest WU I have had so far, 125. Longest being 5000 (I think).
Any idea how to fix it? Maybe restart it after its finished this WU?

Re: Is this right?

Lol your PC destroyed that protein.
Backup the work folder and the fahcore.exe (Could be something else like Amber) delete Fah.exe and download again.
Or you could wait until it has finished.

Back to normal now. A bit odd, no? What do you mean, my PC destroyed it?

No, its changed, it says above in that pic it was p2621_p1475_tet!_03_ (which seems odd it didnt have a normal title). Its now p2452 Fragment Receptors (which looks pretty normal).
I cant find where you look up what a certain WU is for on the website, where is it?

Found it...

Project 2621

These projects study how viruses infect cells. We are studying the viral proteins responsible for infection and how they interact with cell membranes.

So is it just luck of the draw which project you get? Is there any way of asking the server for a specific project?

Either they have fixed the invisible stats bug or mine has suddenly started working!!

AFAIK it's pretty much luck of the draw...

Re: Is this right?

That is fair I suppose, otherwise everyone would be re-writing it to connect to a server that provides projects with high point returns.
