Giving the power to help others ... World Grid.
Part Two. The first one was maxed out at 300 messages. In this edition, we can discuss current research into HIV as well as provide a link to where people can help solve this problem.
More info (if you need it) at: To join go to After you join as a member, join our team by selecting "join a team" and then go to {T section page 3} to pick "Team EvC" to join ("Team" is part of the team name, so we are the Team EvC Team). Enjoy. {abe} It appears that the BOINC agent may be easier on the computer (disturbs other activity less) and is more productive than the standard UD agent and can run on older slower computers that the UD agent cannot use. I don't know how to set this up other than to (a) run the worldcommunitygrid download on one machine to sign up, (b) download the BOINC agent and assign it to worldcommunitygrid.org and then (c) uninstalling the worldcommunitygrid download (so you don't have both agents running), (d) repeat (b) for any other machines once you have a valid sign-up to attach it with. To download the BOINC agent go to If you want to just us the standard UD agent then you should use the throttle or you will probably see jerky mouse behavior: New trottle tool and default setting at 60% - newsletter article:

In other words we may find the best source of information on how to cure the disease in our genetic cousins. How does one explain that without evoution? Enjoy. we are limited in our ability to understand by our ability to understand RebelAAmerican.Zen[Deist

Ck our 31st member of Team EvC!!
Almost 11 years of runtime and pretty much in the top 400 teams out of 10,883 teams over all in just over 6 months. Thanks to ALL who help.

There are currently 10,965 teams working on the World Grid...we are in the top 400. Over ELEVEN years of run time WOO HOO. Omni is leading with over a year of run time all by himself! Jazzns is pushing his first year with over 354 days. Both our frontrunners here have over 1000 results returned. We have a lot to be proud of people!! And a lot of people to be proud of :D http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/team/viewTeamInfo.do?teamId=W3FG4T4VRP1

Nerd ego officially hurt now that Omni has beat me.

I built a new machine at home (has taken upwards of a month to buy parts, assemble, and debug this beast), and just signed it up on the grid to help me "stress" the system while I try and fight system instability.
Does anybody know any good tools to help with detecting system incompatibilities? I'm getting fairly random reboots. I think it may be a motherboard / RAM interaction issue... Also, anybody know if you can run 2 versions of the grid at the same time? I'm running dual core, and the grid doesn't seem to be taking advantage of it. Thanks!

We'll probably end up stuck in the 300s for number of members but in the three categories that count (Run Time, Points and REsults) we are heading in the right direction. In the slightly more than a month since Asgara posted we have improved in all three categories:
I know we shouldn't need any motivation or reward beyond doing the right thing but personally I don't see anything wrong in getting a slightly smug warm glow out of seeing us climb the charts. So I'm shallow... I know it and I don't care! Since I check out the WCG stats every few weeks for my own curiosity I'd be happy to post our progress say once a month if anyone else is interested. Let me know. Oops! Wrong Planet

Try checking the FAQs to see if this is already asked?
Can you assign users to one core? Then you could create two users with the different cores and try to run two -- if you get a message that it is already running then that would indicate it was using both. can't help you with the rest. we are limited in our ability to understand by our ability to understand RebelAAmericanOZen[Deist

The BOINC Agent will automagically detect dual core machines and use them, the UD agent will not.

I'd like you to keep those summaries coming, MT. I'd like to see all 2xx's on our rankings.
Doing the right thing for the right reason is all very well, and sufficient, but it's good to know how well that right thing is being done. It's difficult to do one's best without having some Honorable Other to push. We evolved that way, I think; full, angelic enlightenment might be beyond all that, but at this stage harnessing our competitive engines for enlightened purposes is about the best we can do. Anyway, IMHO that's the true worth of competition, a worthiness that can leave all the runners smiling at the end of the race. I'd love to see some smartass upstart overtake my spot on the team, piss me off, and make me try harder: Jazzns should get major credit for making me redouble my efforts earlier. Otherwise, I'm too lazy: mostly good, but lazy. ;)

Thanks Jar.
I just migrated to the BOINC agent. Best feature about it...--you can install it in windows as a service. Now I don't have to worry about staying logged in, and I can assign restricted permissions to the Grid user. Cool :) Hope my 2GB of RAM show up soon. Not having much luck with EBay these days... Thanks again.

keep the updates coming
Notice that there are now four "projects" Participate in All Projects Although the last is technically a continuation of the third. Cancer is added to the list, even more reason to participate eh?

To download the BOINC agent go to
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/viewDownload.do?platform=all My installation crashed, probably due to not using passwords for users? sigh. As a plus they now support MAC and LINUX on all projects. we are limited in our ability to understand by our ability to understand RebelAAmericanOZen[Deist
