    Just started to FAH, and I am feeling better about myself now :D I wonder how long it takes to fold a protein? I will leave it running all night and tomorrow and see what is happening :thumb:

    Cheers,

    Hello Alphalutra1,

    That's GREAT news, it sure is a wonderful feeling, to know your making a difference! I finished a WU on Sunday (500) took about 3 days. As I type this I'm working on Tryptophan the screensaver said 6 days & change, that one is (250) I'm currently at 35/250. Also I have chosen, to accept projects 5mb or larger (see connection tab) also I choose not to use Scrensaver, I fold all the time (see Display tab), this is a hyper-threading machine so I can get away with it. and finally I give 100% (see advanced tab).

    ctrl+alt+del shows FahCore_78.exe using 109,268 k

    Thanks & Take Care
    Rico

    I finished it a 7:22 in the morning, which is about 9 hours for one WU, which is pretty good since it is running at 50% and everything. I also have it as a service, so it is constantly running. I may up it to a higher CPU usage later. It is running very smooth so far.

    Maybe we could have a wilderssecurity team eh :D That would be great and we could even compete with Castlecops since I know they have a team

    Cheers,

    I would be more concerned about the corporate use of the data being created freely by our machines than the security risks of FAH.
