Hi !
Thanks for your interest in Folding@Home and our team!
There is a lot of information on these pages. I've attempted to index some of the important topics that should explain most of what you should know, and hopefully answer those questions you have.
If not, there's the whole forum out there to discover.
Many of the team members are also staff, so just about all the advice you receive here will be very good.

This is where the "stay on topic" rules shiver shake and roll. For instance, the "Off-Topic" forum can serve as a breeding ground for new forums -- or not. |

Except, I no longer control that group.
Welcome to folding TheWarIsON.
| As Rodders once wrote: | Yesterday I couldn't even fold a handkerchief and yet today I'm contributing to an international molecular physics project. Just wait until I tell my mum!
I signed-up only this afternoon and completed my first WU for Cops earlier this evening (BST)
Just so long as I'm not expected to wash and iron the damn things as well, I'll be perfectly happy. |
Sorry, I love that line

Nope, I am the one doing it now. Generally I get it within 8 hours or so, but my dialup is becoming the pony express. Around the first of the month that should be taken care of. _________________ For ZoneAlarm help http://www.donhoover.net

That would be a waste of monitor ink and human resources. I'll wait in the bar.
