slush's pool has anexcellent irc-like chat, use that to get help!

And I was told there that there was no point in asking there, as Slush doesn't visit it.  Only on the forum....   Grin

Watch the values of those shares fall over time, too.

You revealed that you are CPU mining it seems it's easier to make fun of you than to offer any advice here.

As with my thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/good-pool-fr-3mhs-181612

Maybe it's time for "screwyouweCPUmine.com" or something. I was just advised to mine to the pool at /dev/null  Roll Eyes

Is there a link for the best Stratum app for Windows 64bit?

I've never used anything other than stratum, and I can see my rewards going up every few minutes.

Then again, I'm not wasting my time CPU mining.  Wink

I joined Slush's pool with RPCMiner and saw my account begin to collect a small amount of bitcoins almost immediately (.00009BTC).

The Site showed that I was using Getwork protocol and if I used stratum the fees would be lower.

So I did.

And now, even though I have added workers, my account shows nothing accumulated.

perhaps using stratum makes the jobs bigger and therefore, less updates on the site.  However, stratum is querying stratum.bitcoin.cz on a regular basis. 

Does anyone know of a way to see if stratum is actually making any progress?  perhaps my dabbling with a CPU mining is just not worth it for stratum as the jobs are already old by the time they report back to slush's pool?
