[timers]

I want to start Folding on my CPU, and I went to Stanfords site for it and downloaded the .exe graphics version. Like the BIGger better one. I different icon that normal shows up for it on my desktop, and I click it, up comes a Microsoft Office Developers Installation thing, and next it says I need a component update. There is a pic below. My question is why in the world is this related to Office? It says its called Gkware, and I want to get rid of this crap right away. Thanks. I click the exe and Office install comes up, and then goes away and nothing ever pops up. Thats shown in first pic. Second and Third pics show my frustration with this filetype!

Gkware is just a company that makes the extracting program that Folding@Home uses - it's not spyware or anything.

As far as why is was doing the Office XP stuff, I have no idea - I've never heard of that happening.

Have you tried installing the program fully, or will it not go past the Office problem?

Anyone have a version of this not associated with GKware? Because everytime I click, for some strange reason, it wants to be associated with Office Developer, which Im not even using, and then it loads the install thing, then just goes blank, and Im back to desktop. Its very weird?

The text console isn't. Other than that, I don't know how to get around this bug.

Ya I got the text console to work. Oh well. Once I get my new CPU, 1800 . I can play with it.
