Default cancer research - using your PC

Is anyone else donating their PC power to research anything?

Cancer Research
Ceti (sp)
AIDS

I just like the idea of link thousands of PCs together to make one massivly powerful computer!

ive heard of seti @ home (and used it a few years ago) but havent really bothered as its not a cause i really care too much about (even tho it is running on some servers at work)

but this cancer research thing? I've just installed it and i'll be happy to let it run as long as possible as it is a cause i care about
