Oh I see, so you're doing more than me and you already knew about WCG 
then, glad to know one of the BOINC developers. My Country was also 
affected by Dengue and Influenza and the WCG was the for us too, is 
reassuring :-)

And now I have the opportunity to ask a BOINC developer to make 64-bit 
versions of the projects, the one you're working on please, with 128-bit 
floating point instructions for even faster processing. I have 
confirmation that the 32-bit version of the WCG run up to 30% faster 
just because they're running on WinXP x64. :-)

Cheers.
