Thanks for all the reports on the version 1.11 for win32 of the app. The main bug (problems when restarting from a checkpoint) should now be fixed in the upcoming version 1.13. It was related to a checkpoint file not opened in "binary" mode. Binary mode is meaningless on POSIX platforms such as linux, but on win32 it is necessary if you're reading/writing a file in binary mode. Version 1.13 of the Linux app is also going to be released.

As team captain, can you do a team email through Orbit to let everyone know whats going on? Hate to see the WUs killed off, but hate to see wasted cycles even more.
