It is pretty hard to get set up...

But you don't get shown (I think) until you complete one work load.
To get into the team: Right-Click the FoldingHome program thing, go configure, then User (tab), then type in 67290 as team name, and have your name (or whatever) as user name.

BTW, I'm working on:
p3040_supervillin-03
GROMACS core (does anyone know what this is?)

on Folding@Home.

I wish I could help, I feel useless . . .
Actually, I may get the old PC working again with F@H, and just add myself to the team.
Over time, it crunched a considerable amount of work units, considering its Sempron CPU.

Based on structures from previous villin simulations we have conducted, this class of projects delves deeper, obtaining a better statistical picture of the folding process.

You can do lookups on the project numbers at: http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/fahproject

It's because I have a laptop, it gets hot enough as it is and I don't want to strain it.
If the heat wasn't a problem, it'd be pretty good, it's powerful.
Guess I'll head off downstairs and set the desktop back onto it.

You can limit the amount of CPU usage it takes. I am running it on my laptop, and have no problem. Folding@home disables itself when you run on battery.

    Ugh sorry to hear about that unlovedwarrior. It's crazy that a little app like that would cause so much grief with WoW.  To adjust the CPU usage you can right-click on the icon in the Systray and go to Configure, under Configure click the Advanced tab. By default the CPU core usage should be set to the lowest possible.

    In addition if you're running it and want to pause it you can right-click the icon and choose the pause option.

      I know I can limit it, but it's not much use running with 10% of my CPU.
      I also don't want it to trigger the CPU to keep stepping up, most of the time it can stay at 800MHz which is fine.
      And I never use my battery, so that doesn't matter to me.

      Unloved Warrior,
      It was the Sims 2, wasn't it?

      (A game that probably should never be minimized in anyones right mind)
