2) Questions and Answers : Getting started : Communication deferred (Message 45290) Posted 25 Nov 2012 by old_user689818 Post: Hello, I reinstalled BOINC on a new laptop a few days ago (and joined your project). Since then I have not been able to obtain any work for the project. The tasks all say "Downloading" and stays at 0%; under 'Transfers' the status seems to alternate between 'Retry in...' (often a number of hours), or 'Download: pending (project backoff...), also with a timer running into hours. I'm running Windows 7 and the Comodo firewall. I have not received any firewall messages indicating that its blocking anything. BOINC is set to run even when I'm working on the PC. Can you help? Thanks, Pieter Watson
