Another amazing milestone reached!

Team for_xk9 has just folded for over 2,000,000 points!

I applaud everyone on our team for their contributions and interest in this worth while project. Thank You!

In short, Folding@Home is a piece of software you can run on your computer which takes advantage of the unused resources to perform very complex computations. Data is loaded from the Folding@Home to your computer, where it is processed, and then the results are sent back where they are compiled with the results from hundreds of thousands of computers around the US and the world. The fastest supercomputers cannot match the power of Folding@Home!

I’m running the software on all my computers both at home and at work. The software is so seamless, I don’t even notice it running. You only need to set it up once and then it’s completely automatic, no intervention required.

I ask that you take 10 minutes to download, install, and run the Folding@Home software on your computer(s). If you need help, I’d be happy to help, or you can visit the Folding@Home website. If you would like to join my team, I would be honored! The first time you run the software it will ask for a user name and team number. The user name you enter will be displayed in the stats on the Folding@Home website and if you participate as a member of my team, it will appear there as well. My team number is 46505.

Won’t you help get us a day closer to the cure?
