On March 6th or 7th, my Win 7 laptop's WUProp stopped working. The event log said i need to use https instead of http. I reset the project (which worked last year for Collatz for the same problem). Nothing. I deleted WUProp, but it won't let me sign up again, claiming "The server is busy". I've tried daily for a couple days. My other systems - Linux desktops, a pi, and a droid, all are doing fine on WUProp. That leads me to believe it's not a server problem. Has my system been banned? What do i do next? Reinstall BOINC? The system itself has been stable for years and with BOINC, and running WUprop for months.

It is related to the OLD version of BOINC (7.2.42) you are running. That version of BOINC has EXPIRED SSL certificate(s).

To solve Download & Install the latest version 7.6.33 from BOINC on ALL your windows PC's https://boinc.berkeley.edu/download.php.

Make sure to REBOOT after installing.
