• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

One client with two configs?

I've got a weird issue with my University connection here. When I download WUs using my "Internet Explorer settings," each download attempts probably upwards of 30 times with FILE_IO_ERRORs and whatnot, but when I use my University's proxy, I can download work without a hitch.

Ok, so I set the F@H client to use the proxy. No major issues, except that I can't seem to upload finished units through the proxy. Generally, I just wait for a couple WUs to finish and restart the client with the IE settings checked so they'll send.

Is there any way that I can have two different settings for uploading and downloading work? (Or are there known issues with NPF and F@H? (Yes, F@H's access is set to "Permit All"...;)) I vaguely remember not having this issue when I first started folding early last semester.)
 
check over the folding site and you will see that norton personal firewall has big beef with folding at home. I used to have to disable the firewall before the units were transferred. But since the latest updates to NPF I have had no problems. If you are running on the latest updates, you might have to switch to a different firewall until they fix it. :(
 
Thanks, I'll bet there's a tweak or something for it then.

It worked before, I'm sure I can make it work again...
