I will probably be converting all my systems over to Folding (now that the RC5-64 project is over with).

However, I feel the need to remind everyone that it is considered ILLEGAL to run a program like Folding in the background on machines that you do not have EXPLICIT permission to do so. I remember a while back an article about a professor who was arrested, jailed, and fined a hefty amount for running RC5-64 on a server he was in charge of at a university because he did NOT have permission from the university to do so.

I would recommend to anyone that is considering using school/work/organization systems to crunch numbers in the background without writen permission from their "higher powers" to think twice about doing so.

Just a friendly reminder.

Cheers!
