Save the World While Your Computer Is Idle

Remember Seti@Home, a screensaver that analyzed data from space in search of alien life? Now you can focus your idle computer time on helping the creatures that live on this planet.

Go to
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org
and download the program and select the projects you want to support. Then, just use your computer as you normally do. Meanwhile, your computer will be processing data that can help fight cancer, AIDS, and hunger. It's a way to give charity and not have to do any work for it. You can even adjust it so it only runs when your system is idle.
