You may have noticed in the sig area of many forum members a reference to Team AnandTech. If you have found value in the articles and forums on the AnandTech Website you can show your appreciation by becoming a member of Team AnandTech. We would like to invite you to join us and use the idle CPU cycles of your computer to further various science experiments.

SETI - Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence
Are we alone? Help analyze radio signals from space in mankind's ultimate quest. This is the original Distributed Computing Project and the largest such project in the world.
Our Seti Team is currently ranked #9 in the world in the Club Category. You are invited to join us in what will one day be "First Contact."
For information go to our Seti Team Website: Team AnandTech Seti
We have lots of stats: Team AnandTech SETI Stats
To get started please refer to
SETI Help and Installation and
Sukhoi's Help Index.

ECCP
This project is an effort to solve Certicom's ECCp-109 Challenge. Certicom issued a series of challenges to test the security of elliptic curve cryptography algorithms against current distributed computing power. The project is rather small compared to other DC projects, so it doesn't take much computing power for a member to gain a high ranking. Currently, Team AnandTech is in a heated battle for 2nd place in the world. So we cordially invite you to help us reach #1!
If that isn't enough incentive, the two people who find the solution each win USD $1000. Everyone who participates will help set a new computing world record!

UD
United Devices and Intel have launched a landmark research project that allows people to make a real difference in the fight against cancer.
Team AnandTech and the Intel-United Devices Cancer Research Project are asking you to volunteer your PC to help process molecular research being conducted by the Department of Chemistry at the University of Oxford in England and the National Foundation for Cancer Research. To participate, you simply download a very small, no cost, non-invasive software program that works like a screensaver: it runs when your computer isn't being used, and processes research until you need your machine. Your computer never leaves your desk, and the project never interrupts your usual PC use.
The UD client rewards you based on the amount of time you spend analyzing data, rather than the amount of data you return. This makes UD ideal to run along side other Distributed Computing projects. You won't analyze as much data, but you'll still be helping Team AnandTech work its way to number one!

Folding@Home
The Folding@Home project seeks to understand the process behind protein folding. In order to carry out their function (e.g. as enzymes or antibodies) the protein must take on a particular shape. It makes this shape by folding.
Understanding how proteins self-assemble ("protein folding") is a holy grail of modern molecular biophysics. What makes it such a great challenge is its complexity, which renders simulations of folding extremely computationally demanding, and difficult to understand. The Stanford group has developed a new way to simulate protein folding.
A protein can fold itself in one-millionth of a second. It takes 1000 computers to simulate a fold in the same amount of time. Stanford needs your help and so does Team Anandtech.

GENOME@Home
Genome@Home along with Folding@Home is run by PandeGroup at Stanford
The goal of Genome@home is to design new genes that can form working proteins in the cell. The 4 main applications are:
Engineering new proteins for medical therapy
Designing new pharmaceuticals
Assigning functions to the dozens of new genes being sequenced every day
Understanding protein evolution.

* Once you've obtained the client, you'll simply need to unzip, install, and then start it up. A readme is included with the parameters. When installing for the first time, you'll need to enter your account info, and here's the important part, join TA by entering the team number when asked: 604374405
