Anyone interested in a ephotozine world community grid team ?

http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/index.jsp

its a background process that runs at a user set cpu % in low priority so when other programs are launched it demands less cpu power. I leave mine running 90% of the time unless i launch the odd driving sim.

As this is a large community i thought it might be nice to combine our idle cpu time for something worthwhile.

It runs packets of work in the background to help fight or develop drugs cures ect for these conditions. combining mass community cpu power rather than relying on there own in house machines to do the calculations.

It can be run in permanent mode screen saver only or put in snooze mode for a set amount of time to allow you to get one with other task intensive stuff.
