Has anyone checked out ortofon? S/he crunched 825 units last week! Reveal yourself, stranger!

yeah, um, see thats probably not a good thing....
ya might want to delete that off of those machines unless you have permission for them.
can some one refresh us all about the guy that did RC5 on all those machines he didn't have permission to?

You can get you boss pretty puckered about that. I commend you for using your wits and at leat running a faceless, but ASK and if he says no you can't use them GET THEM OFF and don't tell him they were on. You've still got your thousand units extra; that's fine and good. Print out the SETI appreciation form and get it off the PCs.

unless you run the network/computers at your particular work (like i and a few others do), you can get busted for installing it without permission.
if your boss is cool, just say "hey, i have this distributed computing project i want to help out with. we're looking for aliens!" just don't mention that you've already installed it on the machines if you're given permission.

As much as we appreciate the power, GET THEM OFF NOW.
Take them off. Then go to your boss and ask permission.
It can happen. Demonhood gave himself permission, and I got permission from my boss to run it at work.
So have others.
If they find it you will either get disciplined, fired, and/or charged for what you used.
It isn't worth it.

Hmmm... maybe you could RC5 them for the next few days and help us pull ahead of Phlump! I think our chances of winning this race are dwindling...
