Now in existence Abandonia Help Squad...
To join you need to download and install this program found in the link below. http://www.grid.org/download/gold/download.htm http://www.grid.org/services/teams/team.ht...81-9B7018629AF6 Join our team with the above link after you have downloaded and installed the program. Edit: There's an option for a logo, 200w x 100h. Does anyone want to design one or shall I just choose a random one from the main abandonia site? This program is what is called a distributed computing program and if activated will use your spare computing power to search for cures for various illnesses. The calculations needed to do this require a lot of computing power to complete and rather then buy time on a supercomputer with money these scientist never have they ask the internet community to, together, form a supercomputer all of their own. With out combined computers we can do these calculations in a matter of months and thus help find cures for these deseases. Join NOW. :ok: |
Help out and join now!
|
Too bad I can't take my 150k points over to this team... But hey, I quite the Dutch Power Cows adn joined Abandonia Team!
|
It's a very nice thought ;)
|
:blink: What's the point?
|
Very good..
Ill JOIN :ok: |
do you really need a supercomputer to find cures for illnesses? if so can you give an example how? besides i have a really old computer that may count for nothing in terms of computing power.(P2-333,128 ram :bleh: )
|
I`m logged in team..
But why isnt my name standing there?? I can only see 3 names (the captain, Reup and coder 2000) |
It takes a while to process. My name has not appeared yet either.
All help is welcome. There are certain research that requires large amounts of number crunching. These are very specific questions researchers want an answer to. They write a program that does the calculations but the vast amount of possible outcomes means it would take a lot of time (decades) for a single computer to go through all the possible outcomes in order to find the right answer. This is what you need a supercomputer for. You might for example want to know the behaviour of a certain protiene under certain conditions. For such a specific question you can then write a model from which you can find the answer to that question. This is not a program that has the ability to find the cure that will heal all forms of cancer but its help is invaluable to the researchers. |
ligand fit, right? been running it for a while.
|
So is it kind of like SETI@Home ?
Calculating data in the background? |

This is the kind of charity I like- CPU time is much easier to give than money :D |
I joined the team :D
username: IanABasore I whipped up a lil "logo" as addressed below... I know it isn't great and most ppl can do better... Quote:
|
awesome, they are finally latching onto the same idea that SETI has been using for years. I will gladly join and hook it up to as many comps as possible!
|
Squad is getting formed..
Very good :ok: |
when i signed up for it, a few months ago, i found it didnt default to the ligandfit task, but some other project as well. i had to go to the prefs page in the website and change it to only do the oxford cancer project (ligandfit) one.
|
If we can get every member of the forum to join (long shot I know) we'll outnumber Hotu 8 to 1. So if you haven't joined yet, why not??
|
I wouldl gladly join but i have already Seti@home on mz computer.
Can i run these two programs together?I have 1.7 Ghz P4 procesor with 256RAM. |
I doubt that would be very effective. You can run them in turns.
|
I just registered!
|
Well...I have seti@home on my computer for year or something like that,so i gues it is time for change....Bye bye seti, hello grid....
|
I think I'll provide weekly information on the team i.e how many members, how much data has past and what position we are in the league. I know you can look yourself but perhaps if it's up on the site it will encourange non members to join up. What do you think?
|
seti has been p***ing in the wind for years. if there were aliens, they would either keep radio silence (a good idea, when you think about it) or broadcast a big HELLO WORLD.
its a much better use of resources to help towards cancer treatments, seeing as 1 in 3 people will get cancer of some kind. |

I think this is a far better use of all the extra power from your computer |
I just downloaded it and program is running while i was watching soccer...
But do i need to change things in the program or is the basic setup good enough>??? ANd when do you get points and where using it for??? |
Quote:
|
alright...
I`m now at 21%...hopefully get my first points when i reach the 100% (maybe in a few days...) |
the proteome one isnt actually for cancer, but general drugs.
|
About how many gigs of space does this need to use???
|
Quote:
|
What I don't get is how the space can be used to find the cure for cancer. How does that work??? :blink:
|
Is this safe?
Coz sharing internet access is just asking for viruses |
@xcom freak It's not sharing internet access at all, you download the files needed and then using your computer's power to process the data, the once it's all processed it sends it back. No internet sharing or anything
@fawfullhasfury I don't understand the whole space thing but perhaps its the amount of information you need to download for processing. |
Then iam the next help squad member!!!
|
wouldn't it be possible for this to cause an open port to your computer with which some jerk virus or hacker could use for evil? What's to stop someone from infecting and corrupting the data being sent to your computer?
|
That's what firewalls are for ReamusLQ.
I'm going to look into it and probably join too. |
but we all know that firewalls do not always work. I dunno, it just seems a little shakey to me :blink:
|
Quote:
|
Exactly. If you have a communication program such as miRC, MSN Messenger (especially this one) or ICQ then you should not really bother even mentioning that problem since those three programs I just mentioned are at least a hundred times more dangerous than the UD agent...
|
you realise you had a port open to post that question, right? :ph34r:
|
any proof it's not a sham to put spyware on someones computer?
|
Well I think it's a good cause, so I might go and sign myself up.
|
I would too. It's just that I'm a little weary of things were it could very well be a hoax. My computers been trashed too many times, and I've finally gotten it back to the way I want it.
|
cool!
I signed up, downloaded first block, and joined Abandonia Help Squad!!! Thx for showing this to me guys, my aunt died of cancer and am always looking for stuff to upport the cause! |
Whee, it's like SETI (not that everyone hasn't already said that, but whoohoo)!!
Joined! :ok: :D Go, Abandonia!!! :Brain: |
:D Great!! :ok:
I just joind abandonia and its help squad. Keep up the good work! |

In short: AFAIK it's totally safe to download! |
Ok...very well Reup..
Hopefully they will ever make a giant step with this ultra computer....i feel great to be part of such a great idea :ok: |
Never used SETI or like, but this idea seems to be interesting. Hopefully it really does something useful, too. I'm in. :max:

OK so now I gotta choose from three....
SETI@home - http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ United Devices - http://www.grid.org/home.htm ...and Abandonia Help Squad. Should I run all three at once when I'm not using the computer, or should I run one of them, then swap to another after about a month or so? Or shall I not bother at all? My PC is already kinda slow as it is (and I'm very certain my harddrive is failing ) :wall: |
United Devices == Abandoina Help Squad. Go to your member page. Selects Teams and search for Abandonia.
Then just join! |
O yeh! I'll start it up straight away.
|
Hmm I just thought - it better not suck up too much CPU power, cos I play Morrowind alot... let's just say Morrowind isn't exactly "efficient" with memory/CPU usage.
Darn it I think my old UD account has been deleted. Once upon a time I used UD frequently, and I earned LOADS of points - I literally left my PC on all day (although I often used it at the same time UD was running)... so now I've made a new account (hmm guess what it's called? begins with a Y and ends with an E? heh.) Anyway. WOOHOO let the cancer research begin!!! |
Quote:
as for the cpu useage... it wouldnt use any cpu away from the game, or from anything else you do. the priority of the UD task when its running is set at "low" so everything that has a higher priority (including 'normal') will override it. having said that, you should quit the ud agent before playing the game, because you obviously wont be doing any useful processing on it during the game, and the agent uses up some precious memory, that is better used for the game. |
I would like help, but unfortunately the program is only for windows and I have a iMac. :cry:
|
Hoorayy.Finally im in!!!!! :Brain: :Brain: :Brain:
|
Excellent, the more the merrier. hint hint MORE members :whistle:
|
Hello there....
I just want to congratulate you for the idea. You can count with my help, as i' m going to join the "squad" best regards |
I believe I have this stored somewhere on my pc at home.. Ill get it running when I get back from the caribbean! Nice day here, again...
|
hello folks, just thought i would let you know that I will be trying to convince school net admin to let me go around to 13+ computers and install it. They are all brand new P4's with a T1 connection. Keep your fingers crossed he isn't as much of a dik as he usually is...
|
haha we are going to be the top team
|
How do u switch to cancer instead of the other default one
|
How do you change it to run at the "low" setting?
I want to let it run while I'm playing Half Life and listening to music after work (my basic routine) but it runs at full load and it screws up Half Life... I'm running a Celeron 1.8... I know, kinda slow for current times... |
Quote:
then click on 'modify this device profile' (it takes you to a web page, you will need to log in) then on the website it takes you to 'my device manager', click on profiles, then click on 'default' this takes you to the settings, you should probably not mess with the other settings in there, unless you have a big harddisk with lots of free space, and want to increase the space to allocate to ud. leave the schedule alone. then just unclick the proteome folding project, this leaves just the cancer project as your choice. |
Quote:
ugh old normal half-life wouldnt have noticed it, but now they have "steam" which everyone knows is a POS. i wont even waste my time trying to figure out WHY it wont work with ud-agent, when EVERYTHING ELSE DOES FINE. its just a POS. if its somehow screwing up with half-life, then quit the ud-agent before playing it. it will free up memory anyway. |
thanks xoopx! it worked much better

I myself only use this as my screensaver. But my screensaver starts up after 5 minutes of innactivity so I don't think I'm missing much here. It will mainly run at the same time that my filesharing program is running and that really don't take much memory so I'm fine. The rest of the time I plan to switch it on and off manually if I feel like it. |

I cant get it running when it should run togheter with screen saver...
someone else the same problems?? |
Well, I have no promlems, not with the other screensavers, neither with running the program only as screensaver and calculating only then. It's screensaver, UD Screen saver is just pretty slow moving on the screen, but that's it... :huh:

LOL, let's not loose sight of the main idea of all this guys, hehe
update: Have installed it on another comp @ school without net admin's permission. However, gave him info and am hopeful that he will allow me to activate the program on the 13+ computers around the school. (i say 13+ because i know there are at least 13 but definately more.

how often do you get points and do you choose when to run it?
EDIT: i'm getting it now ok so what happens when it gets to 100%? and how much HD space should i give it i let it have 2gb |

I got 588 points on my first and only result but I noticed others have around 1000 points with 6 results! :blink:
I don't think I really understand how this point calculation works... Perhaps the Rosetta brings more points? |
how do i find my stats on the website or do i get them from the porgram?

I've registered and joined the Abandonia team!
Yay! 40 ligands already :Brain: |
yay i did one thing in the roseta part i now have 650 points
now i just started the cancer which i will do from now on |
Quote:
|
i dont really undestand the points calculation either, surely a result returned is a result returned?
anyway part of the equation is how fast your machine is, how much harddisk space you allocate to UD, and how fast your connection is. why, i dont know. |
Quote:
I don't think this is a competition, but anyways :sneaky: How come I only have 160 points, and my connection (56k modem) is not used when I don't do anything. I mean, this program doesn't send any information from my computer, if I'm right! :blink: |
It downloads the package of information and then processes it, after it has finished processing it it sends it back. This is why connection speed has very little effect on the spped of this but processor speed does.
|
i don't know.... i would like to help eith the fight against cancer and that kind of stuff but....... this program still doesn't convince me....
|
just signed up, LOL i just found this site today thx for helping me get indiana jones it was soo hard to find anyway but i found u guys!
anyways im runnin the prog great stuff cheers |

I've got 234 points with a calculation that took 10 hours...
I'm doing this calculation for 5h 30 min. and I'm only on 6% :huh: ... My PC was 87% with comparison device, and now it's 117%, although I didn't clear up HDD space or anything... |
Mine did that, it's probably becuase you stopped using it for a while so it could use more of your CPU power.

I need somewhere to host the logo (the one Eagle of Fire has in sig) before I can put it up, can it be put up on the main abandonia site and a link given to me? Otherwise we can't have a logo :(
|
If it's trouble for ya I can remove it, no problem with me. I only thought the banner was already available.

It's no problem. It's good for the team if there's an ad for it in your sig I'd just like to use the banner up on the team site aswell.

Hopefully it will help them :ok: |
Hmmm, 8 years eh? If you have that much experience, than any problems derived from an offline program can easily be solved because you should already know quite a bit about background tasks. Honestly though , risking (just a bit,if at all)your computer is worth it when trying to work for a cancer cure.
P.S. Yeah I'm a reckless user of the P.C. , but there was only once I really had to reformat to fix my comp, most other probs should be quite easy when you have 9 years exp (I started at 9, 18 now). Hope I convinced you, if that's what you're looking for.... |
ya wouldnt it be cool if YOU processed the molecule thingy that like cured cancer, wouldnt u feel good :Tom:
either way, i mean so if its a BIG scam so what? wow they are stealing my computer resources that im not using currently anyway |
Quote:
because its a forum right? here you can say if you agree with the topic discussion and why or if you don't agree and why... |
The molecule thingie is not a scam. I used to work in a biology research center, on protein molecules, and we were using a similar database that the one being built by the UD agent.
You can also find more info by reading this thread on slashdot: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/12/3...tid=136&tid=137 Basically, just to say it's not a scam, it's really useful (it won't find any cure by itself, but more likely help researchers to recognize a pattern), and doesn't do any harm to your computer... |
Quote:
noone is interested in you trying to put people off joining the team with your paranoia. come up with a good reason why you arent convinced, and maybe i will take you seriously. |
It`s running now the program..
But why doesnt the count the total hours?? :blink: |
Mine just switched from the cancver one to protein folding for no apparant reason. I don't mind the protein folding but it takes MUCH longer than the others (My current task has been going for 9 hours and it's 18% complete). I don't want to waste those 9 hours already spent so I'll carry on with this task but has anyone else's changed without warning and how do you change it back?

i was thinking about the difference between donating your computer sparetime/electricity to cancer treatment research, or SETI. the seti people are wanting to contact aliens. this isnt a worthless wish, but really.. apart from 'coolness' it wont help anything. it might even bring down a hunter-killer robot race that looks for new civilizations to wipe them out in their early stages. aliens arent going to come over and cure cancer, anyway. the cancer research is doing it for ourselves. our own technology and our own civilization. not yearning from some probably dead race in the distant past and distant ... distance.. |

Probably because a lot of people think that the Human race is doomed and that an exterior help could solve or at least help on that matter.

When the team reaches the hundreds i think it would make good publicity for the site.....yeah and help cancer. |
erm, isn't that points generated in the 118 thousands? the rank is above 15000 though.
|
:blink: :blink:
team generated 118000 points which makes it 14000 in rank. |
Conclusion is: We rise quickly, but not quickly enough! :blink:

Meh maybe I'll hook up a few PCs at my school..

It's nice to hear about you guys setting up the agent on the computers at your schools, are they left on all the time or just switched on during lesson time?

How many PCs do you reckon you could get involved with the program? Every little helps after all |
We've got 20-22 in school, I'm sure I could get the one that I'm on, now the rest depends on my classmates,and hope that one of professors won't find it...
|
thats why i am asking b4 i put it on. The machines i put it on are fast new ones so should be able to pump out a couple blocks every week for each machine. 13 of them and each runs 6+ hours/day with 1 or 2 on constantly
|
Tulac, I can't see why your professors would complain providing you put it to them by saying that it uses up EXCESS cpu power (that's the important word) and that it can help cure cancer and other diseases. Also you can set up the different programs under your devices so you will have far more time up However anyone putting the program up on school computers should really check first so they don't get shouted at or have their accounts removed or something like that.

ive had to suspend my contribution because my cpu is getting too hot. i will get a better cooler but i dont run these programs over the summer anyway.. its just too damn hot in my place.
:cry: |
@Xoopx: I'll be having that same problem soon too, it only manifested once for now though, but it's getting warmer...
About plugin in PC's at school, I can't install it because I don't have admin access, and proffesor said she'll look into it, but even if they will be pluged in, they won't run for Abandonia... |
@Tulac Why can't you have it running for abandonia? it doesn't show up so you could sneakily make them all join up to help us?
|
The problem is I can't install the software, I tried, but to install it you have to have admin access...
|
I'm joining too - to this noble cause. :boxing:
Downloaded the app now to configure it - and then I'm joining the team. "Go brothers go!" - idiotic but also encouraging... hope so.... :ok: By now I'm a member of Abandonia team. "We shall not be beaten!" LOL |

My UD agent showes me a 24 h of computing and processed about 50%.
Can I speed things up a little? |
No, excpet by leaving your computer alone so it has more CPU power to work with.
|
Bah, I'm on the last week of my 3 weeks long vacation. And I just checked when my computers, which I leave running at all times, last turned in results and I am told that the last date was the 14th of march...
That damn school janitor must have gone into my room back at the college and turned them off to save power, damn idiots. TWO weeks of progress lost! They don't see the bigger project of this... Gah! |

Yeah, it's really going well, still, even though, looking at the team stats I can see our performance have dropped during the past two weeks. I know I haven't been contributing because of my above listed reason. But There's certainly been a general decrease in results coming in. A pitty I say! :blink:
|
Hey, give me a little break here... I sent back 104 results since the beginning of this Squad... :whistle: ;)
You'll have to expect people to reduce their contribution a little in the future. At the beginning everyone were happy to make as big a contribution as possible but I know, at least for me, that in the summer it will drop considerably. I don't think I'd like to have my computer run nonstop when it's already that hot... |

Sorry to hear so man...
I could never even think of turning my computers off, but I guess I don't live in a hot area like you guys. I mean, even during summer it would never be more than 25 degrees, inside. And just to be on the safe side I've put my two computers next to my mini fridge which keeps them nice and cool :ok: |

Why don't I have meaner PC??? :cry: :ranting: |
Mine calculations are always of Rosseta, they take a huge amount of time (100h in average), how can I switch to cancer cure, was given that a few times and the calculation took me around 10-20h...
|
You need to update the profile and select at the bottom Cancer and/or Rosetta. It's two boxes, one for each. Unbox the Rosetta one and you'll get only Cancer packets next time your client ask for more.
|
Yeah, it's cooler doing cancer research, don't know why. But I guess it makes you feel like you're doing more of a difference...
Just follow the little guide Eagle of Fire gave you and you should have no trouble. |
Don't you generate equal points on rosseta like on coue the cancer?
|
Yeah, the rosetta takes longer but you get more points for it. I prefer to have to have medium sized packages of points a couple of times a day instead of big ones every few days.

the fridge just moves heat around (from inside to the outside) so it should be a bit hotter near the fridge, if anything! also because the fridge needs to let the air at the back heat up, if the computer is heating the air near the fridge, the fridge has to work harder to keep itself cool inside! |
He's right you know, fridges release more heat into the outside world than they take away from the inside. In fact, if you opened a fridge in a room and kept it open it would actually heat the room up!
|
My mate overclocked his PC a while back and it was running at 47c or something like that, recently stuck it next to his window while it was open and dropped the temperature to about 37.

Hmm, back and everything should be resumed. Though my buddy managed to, in one hour, corrupt everything on my server's hdd and make it start with software failure on every reboot. Formatted, lost a bit of progress, it'll be fine now though.

Once upon a time... wrong one! Found it, so let me begin. Yesterday, I was on my comp. doing my buissnes, with my tools... In mean time the Rosseta project was doing her calculations...

I am a new member of the abandonia forum. (newbee spammer!? :angel: ) I decided to get off my fat, lazy, buttocks and post my 2 cents (actually, probably closer to a nickel...) and while scanning the forum found this little tidbit! I know quite a few people whose lives, wether directly or indirectly, have been affected by cancer. I figure, most of the world in one way or another has been negatively affected by this terrible disease, and, as one wise person (probably drunk) said, "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem!" .. uhh .. I forget what the point I was trying to make was, so, uhh.. :blink: Yeah, I joined the team. I'm no longer feeling drowned by guilt every time I see a commercial on TV asking me to donate money to Cancer Research! :ok: However, the pangs of horrendous guilt trips still haunt me every time I see a 90% naked ethiopian who's a bonerack while at the same time having 5 times the stomach size of my uncle, Jim, who sits on the back of the Beer Truck all day on the other side of the Trailer park. Someday, I hope that a computer program will be created that will solve this problem, much like the cancer research one has. :bye: bye :bye: thechaoselement@hotmail.com :ot: |

I am forced to delete this program, my PC overheats if I run it for 20 minutes, it got overheated on too many times...
|
I don't even know what is my CPU tempereture.
But i know that at night he warms my feet. LOL Maybe we have a problem here?! |
Nope it's my computer specific, it tends to overheat after long stresses, so instead of cooling down when it's idle, it heats even more, thus disablong any normal usage of my computer...
|
Quote:
Overheating happens in computers with "prescott" processors assembled in old ATX box. i think that what you need is a "THERMALTAKE" box, as they have been designed for processors that need to waste large amounts of heat. |
Overheating happens on all computers that are not sufficiently cooled. Look if cannot install a extra fan or perhaps one of your fans is not opperating properly.
|
It's fault on my motherboard, it shows wrong temperatures(now it' showing 68 degrees celsius), and I made it automatically turn off when it get's to 90, I tried flashing BIOS, but it doesn't help, it's just the way it is, and it doesn't overheat THAT often, last summer It did a couple of times when I played Morrowind for a few hours...

P4 3.2

it can run at 100% cpu use? I never knew that.

For me it ALWAYS run on 50%... might go up to 51 or 52% just to go down to 49 and back up to a steady 50% again...
are you SHURE your P4 2,8 is a HT? I thought they started with the "real" HT @ P4 3,0 EDIT: When i chk the CPU-load graph, is showes full load on the "second cpu", and no activity on the first, besides from the usual explorer (1%) and so on... REALY odd. |
Is there something going on with the client? Since a week or so I am having a lot of problems. Sometimes I need to reenter the passwords, other times the client can't connect back to the server... :blink:
|
No such problems here... odd.

I would like to change that, any know how? |
well, i am having the same problem as Eagle of Fire.
my program just finished a task an it can' t upload the result to the server; i get the message "unable to conecto to UD Server. backing off" |
I came up against that one too Shrek, sadly the only way around it is to uninstall the UD agent and then reinstall it and register the program again under the same account. I think that's what it is or you could perhaps try the official forums

I get that problem but I just wait a while and it seems to fix itself.
|
I gotta uninstall the whole app? nuts but its worth it
|
It seems UD have a hardware problem with their servers. No idea what the problem is or when it is gonna be solved...
|
Looking on their forums, it seems that the issue has been fixed, and things will slowly get back to normal soon.
|
problems is right, I can't even get to their website anymore. Keeps saying it couldn't find it, even through google
|
Hmm you are right. I think they said that you might have trouble connecting in the next few days as there would be LOLs and lots of computers now trying to connect at the same time, so be patient.
|
reinstalled, rebooted, and after an hour trying to remember my pword and user name, I got in and got another block.
Problem solved...for now |

Nice, mines still going strong, although I seem to be getting a bit less points as I was before. The same seems to be happening to the whole team if you look at the stats.
|
well, as for me, i only re-installed the program a few days ago....
since the begining of june there were a few problems on their side. i think the are solved now, but before that, i think i have uploaded the same result for a couple dozen times, resulting in my status to show over 50 results and some miserable points. it is impossible that i have that number of results as my computer take from 1 to 2 weeks to complete a task (it would take a full year with a result per week to achieve these 50 results) also if you check the statistics, you' ll find a down-peek in results around that time. |

Man... for the past 2 or so weeks, mine hasn't been working... it usually runs as the screensaver, but for some reason I got logged out. I only just noticed, so now I am contributing again :).
|
I think there was a general logging out of people's accounts for some reason so that might explain why the data transferred has dropped, so if you all sign back in then we'll be back on our way to helping.
|
Seems like I'm at the top of all 3 sort options in the team now. :)
I was wondering, why does it shows in the team statistics that nobody contributed since a week now? I myself continue to contribute each day, I find strange that it is not cumulated in the team stats. |
Anyhow, since a power outage early this morning my computer seems to be acting quite strangely. Probably a memory block busted or my graphic card which doesn't work great anymore. If I'm lucky it's probably only some HD corruption but I already ran a scandisk.
Anyhow, I am turning UD to screen saver only from now on. This mean it will reduce my contribution very significatively. |
Judging by their forums it seems they've been having technical issues again. Hopefully it's all sorted now.
