Flygurl 0 #1 August 24, 2006 Hey guys! Do you know or have you ever known someone with Cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson’s or some other disease? Scientists are working on unlocking the key to understanding these and many other diseases through the mapping of how proteins “fold”. It’s believed that many diseases may be rooted in a protein series that doesn’t assemble itself (that is “fold”) correctly. You can help by running a simple piece of software on your computer. The software downloads scientific simulations from the University to solve while you aren’t using your computer. It’s completely safe and will have no problem effect on your computer—I’ve had it running on 27 computers for several years with no issues. For the geeks: When your PC is idle, it uses 99% of your CPU. When you're using your PC, Folding uses 50% of your CPU. At anytime you can pause the software with a single click. To help: Simply download a program from http://folding.stanford.edu/. And install it on your computer. When you install the program, you can also join the Dropzone.com team. Simply put "31515" for your team number. You can also do this later, or change to a different team at any time. Blue Skies, Kara P.S. DZ.com has been doing this for 4 years, but some of ya are slackin' these days.... you KNOW WHO YOU ARE.________________________________________ "One out of every four American's are suffering from some form of mental illness.
