For anyone who hasn't done this, you can do it once a week and it is super fun. They have a bonus system, you either earn 4.5 cents for each transit you find or .80 cents for every 10 minutes. Really great requester and I already had my bonus sent to me.

I'm getting "Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 140.247.62.101:9876." in the preview. I don't suppose that will change if I accept the HIT? Should I just wait and check for it tomorrow?

I never received a message like that, but I use Chrome. It may be your browser/connection. However he has had these up the past few days so I would say just trying again later or tomorrow wouldn't hurt.
Re: Find planets by examining the brightness of stars That's funny. I was just reading an e-mail that I just got from him for a $3.20 bonus for that.
Are you using anything like peerblocker? Mine was blocking data from universities so I had to turn it off before it would show up. The same might be said for a firewall.
Nope, I don't have any sort of blockers on. I actually may not even have a firewall enabled right now. I don't have problems with any other HITs. It's gone now though, so I'll just see if it's put up again tomorrow.
Must be on their end. I did that HIT yesterday using Firefox. Edit: I'll go to sleep now since my thread killing seems to happen everywhere...
