To the late TRC client updaters :

if you updated your TRC client past block 175000 and are on the wrong
chain, you can use the following procedure to switch to the right chain :

start your TRC client with the following extra parameter:
-reindex

When reindexing finishes, issuing a "getblockhash 175038" command
through help/debug/console should return :

The new version kicks in, in just a few thousand blocks. Please upgrade asap. From:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=51F25CCE.6060309%40gmail.com&forum_name=terracoin-announce

Terracoin update 0.1.3-42 is now available for download at our
sourceforge mirror and github repository.

This build addresses the difficulty manipulation issue currently seen on
the live chain, and will be mandatory on block 175000.

The code allowing such difficulty manipulations was added to the client
prior to the ema difficulty adjustment implementation, it should have
been removed from the client long ago to prevent this.

Once most network nodes are updated, and block 175000 is reached, the
capped ema implementation should take care of abnormally forged blocks ;
as usual, this is supposing the network gets more hashing power than the
attacker(s).

With the current artificially decreased difficulty, and the network
hashing power way higher than the 'awaited' rate, network will generate
a lot of orphan blocks until this issue is addressed.
