"Resuming Network Activity?"

"Resuming network activity."

I got the above message last night when I installed the client and was doing some experimenting to try to get it to obtain work.

Does this mean it will download a workunit sooner or later? I'm on default settings, I'm hoping this means I'm in everything. Should I just,"Hurry up and wait," or what?

Your help, or reassurance, is appreciated.

I figured out what was going on. While, admittedly, I should have done more research, I feel there should be a help file that tells you that simply downloading BOINC doesn't actually connect you to any projects. That URL and ID request was a mystery to me when I downloaded the client yesterday afternoon.

I feel a BOINC Sticky that covers this would be prudent.
