lost seti password

[peang]

Hi all
I try to get back crunching some more seti@home.
i want to change my e-mail address since the old one i think it's not working anymore.
the problem is I didn't remember my password at setihomepage.
anybody know if i can get my password or I need to strart from the beginning again?

1st best thing to do is to try out your old email add ,see if it still works.
If not you're probably screwed.

Why not keep on crunching in your old account as it is? ,doesn't matter if the email doesn't work ,you can still add to the account.You just can't alter it.

the prob is i want to play with seti queue. and i don't even know what name i put it in my acc hehee
or do you think I don't need that kind information for seti queue?

You don't need your account info for seti queue to work. It gets the user info from the seti client when you set that up. You will need your email address to set up the client of course.

The email address doesn't have to work, you just need to know what it was to set up the client.

How far along were you? If not far, I would probably set up a new account, that way you can join Team AnandTech. If you had a lot of work units, you might want to just use your old email address.

I have no idea if this works but i found it on the S@H msg boards awhile ago.

I had the same problem recently. Go to
http:/www.softwarepatch.com/software/indexdat.html. Download this free
program. Clear your Internet Explorer history & run the program. Set the
filter to setiathome & then read the URLs around the date & time you lost
things. You will be able to see the password you were using & the E-mail
address. Don't forget there will be quite a few of these if you tried several
times.I had entered my e-mail with an error. I was able to locate this-use it.
Open my account -change the details- & run again. It did pick up work units I
had done in the new file & added them to my original totals.
Good luck

I have about 1500 something wu right now not much but just eager to continue it since i got my new barton 2500+

but it's ok, since i saw one of the threat said that they will close Seti and move to something new.
so my plan is just create new account in there and continue crunch some wu in current one even don't produce a lot of wu

thanks for the help all.

Nice number of WUs

If you can't remember what your SETI email add is I can find that out easy enough
