Yea a lot of us that were there got tired of messing with the bad clients that were getting released and went over to play at folding@home. I really doesn't matter we are going to get over run in most of the DC projects.
Tag ur it.

Am I the only person whose automatic update does not work? I am tired of manual downloads. I am temporarily on a dial-up line and have decided that Distributed Folding is just not worth it.

Actually, that is why most of us have switched to Folding@Home. I actually prefer the dFold methodology, but after it hosed all my computer twice in a row, I looked elsewhere. The preoblem with Folding@Home is that it runs REALLY slow on older Mac hardware. My Dual G4/533 is slow as dirt running it. My new Athlon XP3000 overclocked runs about 10 times as fast as my Mac on Folding. And they claim that Folding@Home is at least partially optimized for AltiVec, RIGHT!
