It's too early for me to comment much. The line "Prime, VERIFIED : 1" is obviously a bug in the reporting system. There has been an unverified prime reported! It passes the 32-bit security code that comes on every results.txt line. This is not overly difficult to forge though. The user reporting the prime has completed 3 other LL tests and seems to have signed up with a valid looking email address. I'll start a verification run on this Mersenne number of over 3,500,000 digits.
