It works like this, your computer uses a certain amount of CPU %, this is ofcourse based on how much you have running.
Now if you install that program it will use all the cpu power that you don't use, if somethings needs more power, then the program will use less, so that you never notice that it's running.

Now what this program does with this cpu power is make calculations for things like cancer, those calculations will help finding cures for it.

Anyway if you have more questions then feel free to post in the Distributed Computing forum.

[Edsel]

yeah thnx sharder told me all about it :P

I hope sharder was right (since TT thinks him an idiot) ;)

[Cowboybooter]

Welcome, Edsel! :)

[Edsel]

i do have interest in the US...economically haha

[LordKwiKSilva00]

lol edsel...without our politics though the economy would kinda suck :p

[Edsel]

yeah but i make no difference between black and white..they are just lack or pressence of light if you know what i mean

[GohanSSJ]

I have no real interests in politics, well at least not in discussing it, the thing is that everyone has their own oppinions, and in the end you won't reach anything with it.

[Edsel]

thank you on that Gohan.
