I have the sulphur cycle running for climate prediction, and I was running some wu for LHC. I have the "No new work" feature on for Rosetta yet I still get work units. Since I am under a deadline to finish for climate prediction, I will be forced to abort several wu. Please get this but fixed!

I am running BOINC 4.45 XP 2.26GHz P4 processor

I was not aware that this button was broken. One thing that may be confusing you is that the text in the button shows what happens if you push it. So if it says 'no new work' then that project is currently allowed to get more work. If it says 'allow new work' then work fetch is currently suspended.

I am having real trouble with this answer though. If you run your cursor over the button, you will find the text that displays goes opposite of your answer. HMMM I am really confused now. I am surprised no one else has reported this either....... Thank you for your response Keck & Others....

Keck, I'm still confused. I think it is the opposite of what you said......Look at it and let me now if you can. Thanks.....

On my computer it always shows what will happen if you push the button, not the current status. The current status is shown in the rightmost column (broken in 4.45).
