I am sorry but i uninstalled the program. It occupied 100% of my 1.GHz CPU and i couldn't even open photoshop or other program without getting blocked. Maybe at Home i will do it since i don't use that computer alot, i am sorry about not having it in the office since i am on ADSL 24 by 24 and use the computer for more than 18 hours a day.
Anyway, instead of loaning my precious computer i will give away a sume each month to some kind of research organization in here.
Yes it is supposed to use up 100% of your CPU. It does that. But the "photoshop-locking up" thing is something that shouldnt happen, because the software is programmed to give up the resources when they are required by other programs.
starchie -- ur in the information age town? you lucky sod!
By the way, deoderant doesn't stop you sweating, aluminium chloride does. read the small print on your anti-persperant, its in there somewhere as the active ingredient.
On to other things. UD don't seem to like me(or, my problem is harder to solve than yours :P)
every time i boot up, i get a msg from, above all things, Dvp95 (my dvd software) telling me that c:/program files/ud_someBloodyNumber appears to be infected by a virus. yet norton picks up nothing, even with the latest updates. The UD agent keeps connecting to server, downloading almost all of the info needed for the next task, then getting an unable to connect to server msg, backing off.
To be honest, its driving me bloody nuts because i want to keep helping.
i think i'll have to uninstall and start from scratch, but will i loose all the credits i have gotton already?
or could this have something to do with the physical distance from my comp to the phone socket (50ft). but i dont think this is llikely.
Crying shame that the UD client program is Windows only, as I have 40+ Macs and Linux computers at work that could be running this after hours. And I also have a very personal interest in helping find a cure for cancer.
40+ computers...you would have gotten some results...
where do you work?

i'm back :)
spaceman - it'd be great to have you as a judge :)
muzikus - you're right you have a very valid point. I was originally angry when i found out about this, but then came to realise that these things take money. There would be a lot of resources required for such a task, so they need to get some money out of this to keep the project running. I'm just thinking of it as fundraising, i'm sure that they aren't making a profit off it. but thanks for voicing your concern
I am getting kicked off the computer now so i'll finish my post later
cheers
hobbi - Right on, thanks bro ! Lemeno about the particulars.Quote:

If anyone hasn't notice, spaceman3 has slowed his ascent to the top of TEAM FLASHKIT. Due to the powers that be, 3 of my faster "devices" were taken off this worthy assignement, as "this program is not approved for running on #######'s PC's." All well. I still have 15 running!!!
muzikus - speaking of the "Powers that be" Ya know, we are all stuck in this predicament. Yes, these things do cost $$$$$$$ . Uninstall the Exodus service if you wish. Just do not lose sight that there are still very compassionate people in this world that aren't always out for the $$$$$$. Sometimes you do just have to comform... but just keep pushin on bro. Maybe, just maybe, there are good peeps like us out there, and we CAN make a difference. That possibility makes this worth it.
Peace

yeah I did over react a bit...I'm not some like die hard socialist or anything but I just got annoyed at thinking someone's making a wage out of this ...I mean there is profit to be made ...I'm more annoyed cause I'm sure this could be done for free...I.E with subsidy ( I think that's how you spell it :) ) ...it should really be totally charity from ground up people giving some bandwidth e.t.c with just promotion and a good cause as thier interest ....
It could be handled differently and personally to me it be too enterprising to actually represent "charity" if you get me....
I don't want them not too be able to run this service but I think it could be done for free...ok it takes thought and work but that's what charity is.....
do what you want.
I'm only interested in giving my pc for useful stuff....
I never win prizes anyway..... ;)
Check out http://www.futureproducers.com and http://www.ministryofsound.com. There are some really cool articles and events listed. Mostly UK, though. Damn Euros! (JK)Quote:

I have good news, at least it was good news for me. I recently had surgery on the malignant cancer that I was diagnosed with about a month and a half back. Now the tests are coming back COMPLETELY negative. Words cannot express the tremendous gratitude you have for life when it is threatened to be taken from you. Keep up those units!!
p.s. I'm still working the lab monitors to linking the PCs at Bradley University in the US into the cancer research.

Woo hoo you guys are cranking along,
Team TPWW now has 54 members, a few points and time and such (damn page cant be displayed so I cant get the stats).
I have tried a few other message boards but they think your selling something or just call it advertising and delete it.
Bloody Idiots.
A heartfelt thanks to everyone who is contributing to this cause, either through the UD client or otherwise.
The reason why I'm expressing this is that I have just found out that my 21 year old cousin has only 2-4 weeks left to live, thanks to that ol' cancer *****.
I've always known that finding a cure is an extremely important thing, but when someone as young, bubbly, compassionate and carefree as my cousin gets afflicted, I've found it suddenly hits home just how important the cause is.
It may be too late to save Kylie, but God knows I'll be redoubling my efforts to make sure few others have to endure this disease.
Thanks again, everyone.

hi mpower
my heart goes out to you and your family, there really are no words at all that help.
all we can do is to try to find the answer to this puzzle, and hopefully this is helping.
the more resorces that we can harness, the quicker the work.
hang in there, my thoughts are with you.
peace and love
starchie
Starchie..
me, a dub? Naw man, ya got me all wrong. Athlone here.
my UD was Fecked ... i had to uninstall then reinstall, still not sure if its going right...
Hopefuly i get into IT Tralee as a mature(here's hoping they dont know that i still act like a teenager, well, sometimes :p ) student, i should have a pretty good chance of getting UD on the network there, even if it is only in screensaver mode.

sounds like fun... i didn't want to read the entire thread... (16 pages)... but how mcuh does it cost?
hi rudolph
the total cost is:
your cpu downtime
a couple of minutes of internet time a week
optional extras:
your brainpower to enter the trailer and footer cometitions (although you might win prizes from team flashkit)
16 pages is a lot - it's a lot faster if you turn off the footers, however pages one, ten to thirteen and any others you care for will explain nearly everything you need to know, anything else, just post here!
it will be a pleasure to have you aboard
peace and love
starchie
nah, the size isn't a prob.
-cable here
but, that's a lot of reading, althoughf or a good cause, id rather work on somethign I'd make income and donate to a cause. get the drift? Thanks for the information.
colon cancer
sorry hessian
what do you mean?
peace and love

Just signed up as well.
I think everyone here knows someone who has had cancer. My Nan died when I was little and I still miss her. My s-i-l's brother died 2 yrs ago, my neighbour last year and a boy in my sons class a few years ago.
Credo, I read the forum posts that you put in your footer and it made me sick to my stomache.
Will post on two other forums so hopefully they will be a bit more receptive than the thick headed, dick brained, spacedout, moronic cretins over on the WWF forum. Feel free to quote me there.
WWF forum? No...I'm not a fan of WWF (never watched an episode(they're called episodes, right?))
Any way...

Ah, someone with good taste!
My son loves it though and is very happy it's on Dutch TV. My brother has had to tape the episodes, shows, whatever for him!
I've got a hit BTW!!!!!!!!
Well, I signed up and downloaded the software ... Unfortunately, right now, I cannot use it ... It overheats my CPU ...
I plan on buying a new case some time soon, with extra cooling fans ... Maybe that will help; If it does, I will be sure and run the UD software as much as possible ...
65 degrees celcius is waaaay too hot ... :(

Only the total amount of memebrs sems to have increased, not the WU's, Points, or CPU time. I know that sine posting yesterday, I have uploaded maybe 3 wu's, so there should have been a difference in number.
Because I do not have a PC. I have a Macintosh. All of you Macintosh users out there that are reading this, Go to my posted link to their suggestion page. Demand that these programs, more importantly the cancer program be written for more than just the windows platform. We want to make a difference too RIGHT!?

It only takes a couple seconds, and if there are enough of us, they cannot deny us. You know who their sponsors are and they have a budget to do so, let's make it happen.

i did join the team and all and the UD did work fine till wek ago. Have any of you guys had problem with the UD and the F-Secure anti virus?
Every day i try to launch it or run it for a while the F-Secure pops up and starts to blah blah blah.. :(

Aparantly they're working on a mac version and should be with us soon! I have a mac in my office that doesn't really get used that much, so it will be great to have that crunching unit aswell!
Don't worry, i think the mac version will be here soon! :)
