I was looking over the team statistics, What I was wondering about is the pts. I see there is a page that you can goto to see what the worth of a package you are doing. How do you get these pts is it after you are done the package or every so offten? Im not really worried about the pts but it would be kool to see how I stack up against other ppl.

the points are credited when you return the WU to the server. but it my not show up on the stats for a wee bit. to give it time to update.
it probably will run faster, but maybe not alot, since it safe mode will be using less resources. but prob isnt worth it, since u gotta restart to use it/
 
I have read over most of the stuff on F@H that I could find on here. This is what i put in to target line after the rest of the stuff
"C:\Program Files\Folding@Home\winfah.exe" -advmethods -forceSSE
 
Has anyone tryed running this as a service in win nt/2k/xp?

1. Then make a folder somewhere on your hard drive e.g
