Just read the FAQ on it that's linked in my sig. That should answer most of your questions.

Heh..read the FAQ's, they tell you everything, but since you posted..

folding is basically a way you can donate your cpu to medical research..this program basically hammers away at 'protein folding' which is like running virtual experiments on human protein strands....i dont know a whole lot about the science,

however most people who overclock like it, i find it's a way to actually put your OC to use instead of just having an idle system ..

worldwide our teams about #60, if you join that could move up, and you can run multiple pc's under the same user-id and combine those points (you see your individual score + team score/ ranking, and worldwide ranking)

so when you arent using your cpu, you can run this and if you configure it to use maximum cpu it will just sit at 100% all night (another great way to test stability of your system)

if you read up and have any other questions we will try and help...we are starting a competition soon where you can win cpu's etc (there is a sticky in this forum) many people including myself are still looking for teams so if you are quick you could join one and maybe win yourself something...
