Back in August last year, there were 45,018 F@H teams around the world and we were #2072.

There are now 59,777 teams but we have climbed to 1780 on the ladder. If my maths are correct, that puts us inside the top 3%.

We have completed 1561 Work Units and scored 215,614 points. All thanks to the renewed interest in this subject and the steady rise in new members.

Welcome to our new members, and WELL DONE EVERYONE!!. Spread the word.

Cheers

Thanks for the welcome, and I'm gunna put it on my sisters' laptops and my desktop in my den so I can have a few computers running it. Though when it was running, it was just looking for work and it kept connecting to the same server and getting an error downloading a WU and saying there was no more work... I find that curious.

the program is at attempt 36 with no work and errors each time. Is this normal? Does anyone have any suggestions?

(note: I'm not preferring any kind of WU, 75%CPU, use IE settings, and having big WU accepted.)
