I'm not sure what you are asking, and I can't open your link (I don't have access).

http://www.gpugrid.net/results.php?hostid=111524&offset=0&show_names=1&state=0&appid=

This shows your tasks, including the I5R115-NATHAN_RPS1120528-78-166-RND4111_1:

I5R115-NATHAN_RPS1120528-78-166-RND4111_1 3809791 7 Nov 2012 | 4:04:31 UTC 12 Nov 2012 | 4:04:31 UTC In progress --- --- --- Long runs (8-12 hours on fastest card) v6.16 (cuda42)

Perhaps it's finished but not reported, or you are not showing all active tasks in Boinc manager (Boinc Manager, Advanced View, Tasks tab, left hand side under Commands)?

ok, sorry for the bad link. The problem is that there is no evidence of that task in my computer. It is not listed in the task list and there is nothing even in the boinc logs. I searched for it's name (well, just for '528-78-166') inside any file in the boinc data directory... nothing.

the computer is currently crunching the other NATHAN...respawn

Perhaps it just didn't download correctly; the one you are crunching now started downloading <2min after the missing task started. You're getting an Average download rate of 445.73 KB/sec (from the GPUGrid server) so it would take longer than 2min to download a Long task.

yes, at around that time I had some network problems. Anyway I was expecting something like a "download error" in my logs. Anyway, the "missing" task (I5R115-NATHAN_RPS1120528-78-166-RND4111_1) will probably stay there until its deadline. Perhaps the best thing to do would be aborting it server side.

EDIT: At his moment I have three tasks in progress (another one correctly downloaded). If I remember correctly this should not be possible (max 2 per gpu, right?)

Yes, you're right, 2 tasks max per GPU.

Might be some sort of reporting glitch, but the task has not been re-issued.

It happened again a few minutes ago... :

Now I have three tasks in progress (with just one gpu). The task list on the web site shows a I32R11-NATHAN_benHP-5-7-RND9298_0 that I didn't receive and that eventually will time out....
