Yes I did check all prime.log and all results.txt. I would never have missed it if it had been mentioned in any of these files. You probably also did not notice that I have all results I have produced going to a special file called: Results.all (how creative I am :-) ), and this process is done automagicly by a script? br tsc
OK. Did you look through the contents of prime.log on whichever system once had exponent 16871993? If the exponent was dropped because PrimeNet informed the system the job was already done, the evidence will be in there. If the system really did run that exponent, found the factor & informed PrimeNet, the evidence will also be in there.
