Well said CowArt! The goal is scientific research, but the competition and points are what makes it exciting in the beginning. As time goes on, that aspect becomes less alluring, but it still can be fun to see the team's fortunes rise and fall.

It looks like they're due to overtake us tomorrow still, but it doesn't mean that it's finished.
LittleWhiteDog and The Knights Who Say Ni! were pushed back eventually.
Still, I'd like to see all 30,000+ members fold at once. That would certainly create some cow pies. 😀

my pb 1.33 12" is maxed on folding and adding my emac 1.25 tonight. Any thing special about 2 computers on the same broadband acct?
This folding is making my arms tired. I'm at 88% on p874 as of now, and everything but safari and mail is off, killed seti for now too. no sleep except for hard drive and monitor..........it is getting warm in here! 🙂

Eh, no. A packet is downloaded, folded, and sent back. Not much up/down loading.
If anyone can tell me how to get a WinXP computer to auto run the F@H scripts right on startup, that would be very nice. I have a computer in the house that would do well at that, but I'm not always around to start up the scripts. And I don't want the screen-saver version... terminal-style will do.
Can anyone do that?

Yep, you sure can. Just copy a shortcut to the F@H application (the one that runs in the terminal) to... I think... "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users (or Owner)\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\" and it should start every time you start your computer.Mechcozmo said:
You might want to check out a program called HideIt (sorry, cant find a link right now), it's the best application I've found to hide running applications from the taskbar.
for running it as a service i think when booting it for the first time from command-prompt put this after it: -service
I found this at http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding/console-userguide.html Also i think when you put it into startup folder it only starts when you login. Not certain on this though

For running F@H as a service on win-machines, you need the console-version of the client. If you already have that one running, stop it, and run it again with the -configonly flag. The third config-question will be:
After that you can either manually start the service, or reboot the computer, and F@H will run as a service! 🙂
Answer should be yes, obviously...
