OK--what I want to know is how you got a new WU when I can't even send mine in because the servers are down. Are you sure it didn't just start over on the one you had? [This delay is killing me.] Argh!
As an aside, the one WU I ever lost [p1152, which was 4 frames from completion] got zapped because I did an alt+ctrl+delete restart. Power outages don't zap my WUs. A computer freezeup doesn't zap my WUs. Restarts don't zap my WUs. Nothing zaps them but alt+ctrl+delete. So I don't do that anymore.

Ouch!   Well, look at the bright side - your electric bill won't be as high this month, LOL.

Series, I hope your staying cool.  The current heat wave over most of the country is dangerous without A/C.  Sorry you lost that WU, but staying cool is more important.
