I've found today a friendship request (the most recent of many) from Milkyway@Home. I didn't have an account but tried to fix that by registering and log in to the account but all the data and work done for Milkyway@Home is via Science United and I've been told (as I expected) that I must access the friendship request via Science United.

This is not possible though as when I click on the link to read it, I'm taken to a Milkyway@home login and we start the circle again...

Previously I've never been able to accept any friendship requests as either I could not logon, could not get a password reset (told the email does not exist) and then try to create a new account and I'm told that an account exists.

It's all so weird but what is the point in having this feature if I can't use it? Does it bother me to be unable to accept friendship requests? No, it does not but can someone give any guidance into how I get this working or can it be fixed somehow? I had wondered if the BOINC link was unable to detect that it needed to go to the Science United page. Either way though, no idea how to fix this.

I am running PrimeGrid in Science United. Every time I open my standard BOINC manager I get a notice saying that someone is sending me a private message from PrimeGrid but I cannot read it. I created a standard BOINC account in PrimeGrid which has no running task nor credit but also there there is no message. I don t have any GPUGrid task running also because I have no Nvidia board on my Microsoft Surface 5 laptop but in Statistics it appears to be running. I have 3 Science United tasks running and three standard BOINC tasks running. GPUgrid appears also in Projects but it does nor run in any platform.
