Grub - anyone running this yet? future of searching?

[heartsurgeon]

this new "search" engine Grub
it could be amazing.

a review article said that seti@home currently has >50 teraflops of distributed computing
power available. if Grub ever gets that popular - yikes..

that should make google's server farm look rather weak in comparision..

any thoughts?
anyone running this software yet? is it safe? spyware? problems? i'd like to start running
it, but i'd like to hear a little feedback from someother people first.

Uhh? Isn't GRUB a bootloader? 😕

EDIT just looked at the site you linked and that seems to be for the Linux boot loader

So I guess it takes up bandwidth too?

yup it seems to take about 30k of my bandwidth, but you can lower the amount

I downloaded the program but it keeps stopping after getting a lot of dead URLs. Anyone have any idea how to bypass that feature
