Something that can help save millions of people.Follow

This program is something that I would like many users to start using. It is easy to install, easy to operate, and can help stop cancer.

Quote:
Basically it is a small program you download that receives codes from scientist’s, works on them and sends it back to the scientists. Millions of people are folding making a massive difference. Breakthroughs have already happened because of normal pc’s users folding information.


Running this program does not affect the performance of your computer CPU speed or bandwidth.

Here is a flash movie that gives you a bit more information. (Click)

If you decide you want to take part and help here is the program.

NT/XP/Pro (Save as)
Windows 98/ME (Save as)
Linux Console(x86) (Save as)
Mac OS X (Save as)

Once the program is running, right click the icon in systray go to configure and enter team number 42901 and your name hit ok, and that’s it!

You don't have to do anything else.

While you sit away you're helping to cure cancer.

Let’s see how much data we can crunch!

Click here for our statistics. (it will grow as we get more people folding!) The member’s part will update and list everyone who finished a task and uploads the info back. This happens automatically.

For more info on Folding go to http://folding.stanford.edu/

Glad to see you're doing so well.

I already have a team. Sorry.

I oppose this from a standpoint of questionin the general worthiness of the objective.

I have no desire to see cancer cured. I openly admit that many decent and good persons are afflicted with cancer through no action or inaction of their own.

I submit to you: All the people out there

In other words, we have no shortage of replacements. To the contrary, cancer, AIDS, plague, famine, and the four horsemen need to get up off their keisters and get to work.

My grandmother died of lung cancer in a shockingly short period, diagnosis to death was under 6 months, and it wasn't pleasant. My grandfather died of heart complications, but it was a race between that and liver cancer. I have no doubt that I will see more persons I know die of cancer. It is possible that cancer will claim me. Death is normal; it happens to everyone.

We all have to go sometime. Too few of us are going quickly enough. If someone would please make a little linky where one can submit CPU power to the goal of killing off world population, THEN I'll sign right up.

The sooner we contact the little green men, the sooner they can come and wipe out our pathetic race.

I'm not giving those poeple free processing power either.

Knowing my luck, the little green people would show up with the cure for cancer. Then where would we be?
