BOINC Online Help
At the risk of driving even more traffic away from this forum...
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/help.php
Seems pretty cool.
My own curiosity wonders how well this is working. Anyone out there in Mac|Addict forumland have any experience with this yet? Sure, I realize it's only been a few days, but this thread will likely remain on the main SETI@Home forum page for quite a while.

OMG! S(he) has only one total post and picked our forum to waste it on!
It was a three month interval between that post and the previous one. At this rate Future USA can pretty much fund the SETI@Home forum budget with the change between the couch cushions.

People occasionally post here, of course I usually don't need help with my boinc installations.

Spam? I should have realized by the username starting with !. Oddly enough, the comment was quite relevant. I guess my original post seems to have done the trick after all.
... and yes, it was a full three months not from that spam to the original in this thread, but three months after the most recent post in ANY thread in this S@H forum! That derserves another OMG!
... Adios! I'm off to watch the paint dry at Arecibo!

Gee... I think that means I need to lock this. Poll: who wants me to lock the zombie/spam thread?

Let me just find that hidden "vote" option....
