Hi,

I have just that, sitting in one of my folders. It`s a modification to 
prime95 ver 16.4. witch accept AdvancedFactor entry (but it does not 
generate valid checksum i.e WS1: 00000000). I also have a small program 
that generate a worktodo.ini file based on the file available at 
www.mersenne.org. I've switch to double-checking since then but if I 
remember correctly you could comunicate with Primenet and submit those 
results without a problem.

Sample input:
AdvancedFactor=2122363,55,55
AdvancedFactor=2099393,55,55

Sample output:
[Fri Oct 02 01:01:19 1998]
UID: diamonddave/seeker, M1319719 no factor from 2^55 to 2^56, WS1: 
00000000
[Fri Oct 02 01:45:30 1998]
UID: diamonddave/seeker, M1319741 no factor from 2^55 to 2^56, WS1: 
00000000

Regards,

David,
