Description
In BOINC 5.10 I have it set to start BOINC when Windows Vista Home Premium starts but since it runs under admin it blockes it from starting. I've searched to find a way to tell it to run automaticaly each time but it wont let me change it. I can right click on the icon (Blocked startup programs) and I can tell it to run BOINC, but I have to do this each time I reboot.

I don't have any software that can open that strange .docx format.

That would be the wonderful new MS Word format.
seeyainafew. Can you please upload it in a standard format like .png?

Replying to KSMarksPsych:

I thought OpenOffice would handle it, but it didn't...
I managed to extract the images from the document, though (.docx are zip files).

Should this be marked 'Blocker', since it should be working by the time 6.x gets released?

Should be fixed in the latest 6.x clients.

5.x has a lot of problems under Vista. It's all already being worked on for version 6.
