With 14 computers folding I'm not surprised! :p

It's not 14 computers really. It's only a few, but quad or dual cores. The smp client is too unreliable to run on computers I don't check all the time. So I run 2 or 3 of the regular client on 1 pc.

As long as you don't go over deadlines, then yes. It helps.
What do you mean, deadlines? You mean the work unit "timing out" and being reassigned to someone else? If so then I don't think that will be a problem - I'm on there at least a little bit every day, and it's been resuming where it left off just fine thus far :)
I'm thinking about doing this on a spare computer, if it's worth the extra cost of leaving it running all day.

Personally I don't think that folding alone is a good enough reason to leave your computer on all day, especially when you are the one paying the bill.

It doesn't show up through the network thing like it's supposed to... how do I set this up?

*EDIT*

I figured it out. How do I get it to display those cool visuals of the molecules full screen instead of the earth?
