please, my sister hates it and doesn't stop uninstalling it, for no reason, just becuase it's one of my apps that's running on "her" comp. Any way to do this ?

Lol, I'm gonna have to start sneaking [email protected] onto a bunch of computers I have access to!

Be careful - get permission. I got a lecture for sneaking it onto a lot of school PCs :rolleyes:

LOL, I have about 6 comps at work folding with no one knowing it. No one is intrested enough to check out the HideIt icon in the systray. Got about 7Ghz folding there, not including my 3.2 Ghz @Home. Fold On people.

Run it as a service in "Scheduled Tasks" for W2K. That way there is no HideIt in the task bar, and the [email protected] isn't there either.

I'm going to slap [email protected] on a disk and keep it in my resource programming so I can slip it on computers I work on. I figure that friends of mine can fold and just call it the price of the "free" tech call.

Heh heh, the Google toolbar modified to send results for team 32 would be a great option..... :)

Maybe someone can write a Perl script to modify the necessary files and figure out how to work it into the Google installer, that would rock....

Google Compute installs itself in C:\Program Files\GoogleDCC\[email protected] Simply edit client.cfg. Viola!
