I'm now *very* confused about the logs at entropia.com. I keep my own log of the exponents I've searched - it's got 30 entries at the moment. I've been running basically full-time on Primenet since November 1997 on a P2/233, becoming a P2/350 in November '98. However, the records have me as testing 18 exponents, and having accumulated only about 1.3 CPU-years in about 1.3 real years. In *** Exponents test completed (cleared) since last master database synchronization *** there are 12 more exponents listed - but it looks as if the machine is thinking I ran double-checks on nine very small exponents which I finished running before 1998 even started, and the 'days run' figures on the exponents allocated to me look meaningless (they're measured from when the exponent was given me, rather than when I started running it). I certainly have *not* been doing double-checking! Is there any way I can get a list of the exponents entropia.com thinks I've searched; I think I've searched (for the first time) 2842529, 2842531, 2842573, 2842589, 2842597, 2842603, 2842649, 2842691, 2842739, 3903373, 3712949, 3738869, 3739103, 3739129, 3742961, 3959587, 4326859, 3745361, 4350889, 4495867, 4494947, 4568089, 4119007, 4876969, 5205749, 5086493, 5086507, 5086517, 5086603, 5297879. Really good would be to get a list of the exponents I searched before entropia.com came along, but I guess that's impractical (unless Woltman has a file result-submissions in which he can grep for me). On a second note, I can't quite see how I can get Prime95 to do ECM factorisations - I've read the source code, even, but I can't quite see how to get the password dialogue in which to put in the password to enable ECM testing. I like the idea of running ECM, particularly since it means I can actually make some discoveries with *numbers* in, rather than just 'Mersenne numbers 2842529, ..., 5297879 are composite'. Tom Womack, who thinks he should probably be above 993rd in the list.
