Everybody knows Seti@home
u use ur CPU to "search for E.T"

but what if u can "FIGHT AIDS" if ur PC has nothing to do?

"So what is FightAIDS@Home?"
FightAIDS@Home is the first biomedical distributed computing project ever launched. It is run by the Olson Laboratory at The Scripps Research Institute, and uses your computer to assist fundamental research to discover new drugs, using our growing knowledge of the structural biology of AIDS.

"Why should I join?"
About 42 million people are living with HIV or AIDS around the world. HIV mutates and evolves very quickly. Drug resistance is on the rise. If there is any "bioterrorism" in the world, it comes from Nature itself, in the form of HIV, and we need to fight this very real and long-standing problem now - more than any other threat to humanity.

So every computer counts! Your CPU helps to screen millions of candidate drug compounds computationally against detailed models of evolving AIDS viruses—an accomplishment previously impossible without expensive supercomputers. FightAIDS@Home accelerates AIDS research by connecting you to a global "grid" of distributed computing power.

You wont get any money or any other profit for running this programm, but maybe your cpu-power helps in finding a solution. Please spread the word.
One alone might be weak, but together we are strong!

There were things like that for SETI or some cure for cancer ones. I personally don't have one but I may get one
