How many times do you think you utilize the power of that Pentium 4/Athlon chip you have in your PC completely? Not even a fraction of the time the computer is on. While writing a letter, surfing the web… all that time, much of the computing power goes to waste.

The World Community Grid comes to the rescue... Help the medical community.

yeah... the problem occuring with me is that it eats up 300 meg ram as well. now i also run 10 other software and java based torrent client. all these already eat up 450 megs. i cant let it go to around 700megs considering i got only 512 megs of RAM

Yesterday only i formatted my computer. But even now it takes time for my msgs to appear. Like in this case.
