it is an easy way to help your fellow man/woman. All you have to do is download and run a small program in the background. It is secure and it will not harm your machine or its performance.

I have been folding proteins for years, at times forgetting it was working in the backgroud on my machine.

We have many people willing and able to help. I can help with the Mac platform if you have any questions.

You can set the client to launch automatically by making it a service, or on the Mac, adding it to logins items. It's really easy to do, and you will have the satisfaction of knowing you are doing some good for your neighbors and loved ones.
