Just a heads up, ALL the smp clients expired on the 30th
The client will only check it own deadline following a restart - so all you freepers that leave your rigs on 24/7 it makes no differance. But worth updating now as a random reboot in a week/months time will stop you folding dead.

Windows SMP - download new client installer - Stop existing client - run - say ‘no’ to removed existing - reboot pc - restart client (if you say yes, you need to run the install.bat file again following the reboot)

Linux SMP - stop client - download new client (small file) - open in archive manager (default) - extract files over existing - restart client. Job done.

Both should start crunching without any loss of WU’s.
