Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
How can I get more points?

What you really have to pay attention to is how much RAM you have. If you're at 512, I'd stay with regular work units. If you're at a Gig+ though, running large units would maximize your points.

Is there anything special that I have to do to run large units?

How to make your machines get more points? Here's how:
1)When you first set F@H up, tell it to allow big units (>5MB to download/upload). I think 512MB RAM is enough to do Big Units (I do it all the time).
2)Install it as a service, so it runs whenever the machine is on.
3)Go into the registry and add the -forceasm flag to the ImageName
4)If you have 1GB or more RAM, add the -advmethods flag to the ImageName
5)On your x2, install two copies of F@H, each in its own folder, and run each with the -local flag (along with the other flags listed above). When you run each instance of F@H for the first time, give them a machine ID of 1 and 2 (F@H needs a unique ID for each processor/core).

All those cpu's should be able to get solid overclocks too, especially the X2. Thats another way to up your production. Well I guess the XP's might not be good overclockers if they're tbred cores, but bartons should get up to 2.2 and they'll be pretty speedy folders.
