If I could find a way around the Deep Freeze program in the computer lab where I work, I could have 26 more computers folding at all times. Still, I’m happy with the six processors I have running.

Deep Freeze is a tough nut to crack...I was once at a sysm admin conference (geek out) and the vendor had it running on a new system. *IF* you could crack it, you won the computer. After 3 days only three people had been able to circumvent the protection.

Are you the sys admin and have just lost the password?

Well, you could slipstream Folding@home into the Deep Freeze image so that it gets reloaded each time. Maybe a better way is to keep F@H inside the Thawspace so no work units are lost between reimages.

Do we need to have a bake sale to raise money for beer and brisket to ummm ... create an attitude adjustment with the sysadmins?
