Folding@Home is a a ditributed computeing program about protein folding. It is done by people at Stanford. Link - http://folding.stanford.edu. I know some people here already use it, if not its something fun and puts your unused CPU power to use. I decided to create a team because i was tired of not being in a group and competeing with people. The link to the group is here - http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py...e&teamnum=46150
Once you install the software all you have to do his hit configure and use teh team number 46150 and a username. They have clients for Windows, Mac, and Linux so everyone can participate.

Sure I'll join your team. I'll probably just leave it running constantly anyway.

Its about 2 months later and we are now in teh top 7000 teams. I know if more people joined we would become one of the top teams. Its a good thing, helping out science. If you dont want to join, i dont hold it against you at all, i just like to use all my CPU all the time. I mean, i paid for it, why not use it all. Here is a link for the team http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py...e&teamnum=46150
