United Devices Cancer Research Project

After being pointed out by Demosthenes that there were other distributed projects going on rather than just RC5 and seti@home I have signed up for the United Devices Cancer Research project.
Now as this is a much better cause IMHO and the agent also has some very pretty molecule images too .
I thought I'd encourage you to download this and run it on your computer. The agent runs in the background and only takes any idle cpu power therefore not slowing down any of your applications. Alternatively you can have it just run as a screensaver.
It is available at http://www.ud.com.

Been running it for several months now. Originally, I was running SETI and got rather bored with it. Then I came across UD and felt it to be a little more interesting and cause worthy....
