Glad you found us Siggy
Hmmmm, how about hosting SM LAN '05? j/k, It's not feasible, just an evil thought. Welcome, I'm sure you'll fold away in typical outrageous Aussie fashion.
Hi all.
My name is David, and I live in Sydney Australia!
I emigrated here about 7 years ago from London UK, (Wife couldnt take the cold weather)
We have a 2 month old daughter, and 2 cats
We have recently bought an Internet cafe in Dee Why, and I am enjoying building computers and selling parts and upgrades as well as running the cafe and the gaming machines!

Welcome to one of the best forums and friendly people on the net....
hi, i just started folding today. I saw the post in the news and thought "hey, my comp is usally always on seeding, why not fold at the same time?" So that why i began. Right now im only running a 2200+ with 768mb ram but decided to start now and when i get my new system (April/May) just continue. About me huh? Im 18 and a student at a local community college. I usally vist short-media everyday but i rarely post. I like music(rock),scifi,computers and...having fun.
My name is Molly, and I'm originally from Tennessee. I'm currently living in New York and attending NYU, where I major in Vocal Performance with an emphasis in Musical Theatre. I play Magenta in the NYC cast of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
My father was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago with stage 3 esophageal cancer. He began chemo and radiation back home yesterday -- there has to be a better answer. Here's hoping this helps to find it.
Sorry to hear about your father, Mollygizer. We have all been touched by cancer or alzheimer's, and this is one of the things that gives us the purpose and drive to fold on.
Welcome to the site, and to the team

Keep the faith Molly. 4 years ago my wife was diagnosed with Squamous Cell Carcinoma T4 - N2 Oropharynx tumor. It was at the base of the tongue and top of her voice box. Same treatment - Radiation Therapy ( 50 of them ) and chemotherapy ( 3 times ) - there have been some side effects to deal with but she is doing very well. There is a purpose to folding - Welome to the team. Jack

regardin the dumbass comp.

Unless you have a dual-CPU computer or a computer with HyperThreading, you don't want to run more than one client at a time. Since you mentioned that your son is the family computer expert, you might want to wait and have him take a look at it before you do anything else.
As far as being a "dumbass", each and every person at this site was the same way at some point in their life. Stick around the forums and after a very short time that label will no longer apply. Then you will be the one showing your son how it's done.
i've got fah4 console, and fah502 console, fahcore_82, my folding, and queue, icons on my desktop. so am i winnin the dumbass comp.? i'll get around to help with the computer later .

It sounds like you downloaded the program to your desktop and installed it from there. The console version installs itself to whatever folder it's in when you run the installation. What I'd suggest is that you wait until the current WU is finished, uninstall the program, then copy the installation program to a new folder in C:\Program Files\your new folder and reinstall it from there.
That will eliminate the mess of icons on your desktop and reduce the chances that you'll accidently delete something (or have Windows automatic desktop cleanup delete it for you...)
You're on the right track, just need a little tweaking - which is why I can tell you that you're lucky to be on such a great team as ours. We have the best experts in the business.

My name is Zack. I've been folding since yesterday. I'm a senior in high school, and I'm going to be attending The University of Tennessee at Knoxville in the fall.
I bought a P4 3.4 Ghz laptop in Feb, and when I found out about folding from an old email that I forgot to read, I figured there was no better way for my computer to spend its idle time.

You figured right.

Well my name is Alvin Chan and I am 16 a sophmore living in a small town (Hadley, Massachusetts) I was in a different forum where I basically learned the small portion of PC stuff. Then they had to delete part of the forum section off since it was a bandwidthspeed site. I was in search of a new forum and found you guys, with the fastest replys ever. The first post I said
Oh, Thank god I found this site. I was SOOO PISSED when I got Home Search Assistent.
From now on this is my new Computer forum!

I work part time at Mcdonalds (parents are managers) and just started at a golf center, and then pickin corn in the summer time.
I listen to rap, hip hop and classic rock. I watch lotsa chinese comedy and action movies.
