My results from V24.x machines just disappears. My account is gone, my stats 
are gone. 
And even after I created my account on mersenne.org I still have 0 computers, 0 
results, and 0 assignments. 

The site says this:
"3. Start the software program and enter your user account login.
The program will automatically 'bind' itself to your user account when you 
enter your user account login into the program, and starts working immediately! 
You can see each computer added to your account using your Computer CPU Details 
page, as well as what it is working upon.  That's it!"

No it is not just it! It doesn't work. 
Maybe because I had a password less than 6 chars on the old server? I don't 
know. And I shouldn't care either. 
But I think this unexpected, unannounced upgrade is a mess. 
And I don't understand why it should be so hard to get a backup up rolling for 
the old version - unless offcourse someone have very red ears and should admit 
the backup doesn't exist. Is that the case?
In any case this "upgrade" is chaotic, unplanned and smells like amateurs.
I really consider after a decade on the project to leave.
