Sorry about this but I am new at this.
I seem to have two different accounts running inside BOINC Manager. One is running FreeHAL@home and the other SETI@home.

Is this OK? Could I only have one account and run both?

Thanks a lot in advance.

It's two different projects, so of course you have two accounts. One at the one project, the other at the other. Projects under BOINC are individual entities, they've not all got the same Boss backing them.

In case you mean you have two different names showing, you can always change the name and email address in the account feature of the project.

Now then, your signature. Can you please take out the link to the Main Street Marketing Machines, as that smells and tastes like a commercial advertisement. Those are forbidden around here and we will be forced to banish your account if you do not remove the link.

Thank you for the clarification.
I will change the names so that they appear the same.

I take it I could add another project if I wanted?

As for my signature. I will take my URL out if it offends you but I want to make it clear that it is NOT a commercial site.

It is my blog full of information some find very useful.

Thanks again for the help.
