• 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.

I'm gone get started...hopefully

Well, I've decided to start folding for a good cause. Unfortunately, I can't do it on my computer at home because it's so slow now for some reason. But I think I might be able to get my school to agree to set it up on some lab computers since it's for a good cause and can be set up as an idle and low priority process. But I don't know which one I should choose or which one would be more creditable, Folding@Home (Stanford) or United Devices (???). I like the United Devices client better but that has nothing to do with it. I'm gone gather some information about which ever one I choose and present it to the headmaster.

So, which would you choose? Or which one do you currently run?
 
run the machines on folding at home, under the name "filthysanchez" and team 33.

Well, while it is on idle priority, it uses 100% CPU usage. Anyways, good job and fold on.

Schools are hard to convince, one of our members is trying to borg BU computers.

I'm not sure what the status is because there hasn't been an update in a while (I used to browse the forums as a guest until I had enough and needed to reply :)). Anyways good luck on it.

About which client you want, I would say Folding@Home. It's acredited to a university, Stanford so that would be more credited I guess. However, that aside, either one is good.
 
My school isn't some big school so it might not be that hard to convince. They can't care too much about the network because the IT guy set up a domain with our usernames and all that, we got new computers this year, and we all run under the admin on the computers.

NIce try filthysanchez, I know how it works. Give you credit, ha, good one. :cool:
