Here you will find all the information about this program as well as the downloads and instructions on how to install the different varieties specific to your liking and machine specs . I will add more info when time presents itself . One Note : If you have any desire to install smp version which is a command line version and takes full advantage of however many cores your processor has do not install the GUI version first as it will only complicate a smp install . The smp version is somewhat hidden and a bit hard to find in comparison , but its there and I will be posting links to the download in the future .
thanks

System tray client : easiest client to install and monitor but its a uniprocessor . You can install this and not have to worry about it again as it will be happily folding in the background as it only uses spare cpu cycles and takes a back seat at the time of using any other program. (once installed can create a more difficult smp install)

Console client only : run from the console but not difficult to do . Has to be configured through the console instead of a GUI like the Sys tray version , uniprocessor as well and a good choice for those that want to install and not have to maintain .

Linux: please carefully read all the documents , for an experienced user of the linux operating system . Plan on installing it soon just loaded Linux last night on a box , can be run uni or smp .

Mac OSX : relatively easy install (version with smp installer ) have it running on a mac book pro(intell core 2 duo) and it is stunningly efficient and powerful running on this notebook .

PlayStation 3 : Yes thats right theres one for the playstation 3 , cannot comment on as i don't own a console, should be plenty documentation available .

Important Note: If you want to join and help JtBclan folding the team number is 179284 which you enter during install or configuration if your installing smp version.
Make sure you get a Passkey also, if not your work can and will go to another team , I learned the hard way . Here is the link to the Passkey , simple process as your key is emailed to you .
