Please download updated clients, these are using the official code base versus the "optimized" code on my branch which may be causing problems.

These replace my releases 5 and 8 respectively. Let me know if there are any other releases you were using.

If you just began mining ~2-3 min ago, it's normal. If more than 5 min passed it's not.

Can someone point me to a good exchange that accepts xpm?

[tadakaluri]

OK, with this difficulty we are going to need a pool around now. A difficulty of 7 and solo mining that for me is pointless.

Actually the difficulty has been 7 from the start. it's now 7.91852725, I'm still finding blocks but only 15 coins per block now.

Which client you are using? The original one and any release.xx?

Vircurex trades it too

Exchange info should be added to the op

[Stinky_Pete]

Odd. No blocks mined in the last ~20 hours, on four machines that were producing nicely before then. Three machines are running the original client, one with an updated client. They are all keeping up with the blockchain. Any explanations?
