As far as the extra info, like Switches, Tools, and Tips are concerned, go get registered at http://foldingforum.org/ and look in the F@H Wiki in the top links -- lots of info there:
Make sure you verify them and they are setting correctly, or you could lose points. If you have any questions, then use the Forum to get answers; there's a good bunch of folks there, as well as the Pande Group jumping in and giving info.
From Tools I grabbed FahSpy and have that running for my house LAN, tracking my three processors; works great.
Friday night folding for the Gipper bump!
