We have a team in here, but only nine (9) members and seeing we have now so many new members I thought I shall see if we can bring some new life into this fun project.

It is free to join (and we like things that are free) :)

http://whatpulse.org/stats/teams/9873/

This just sits in your PC not doing any harm to your crunching power and it
counts key strokes, mouse clicks, mouse scrolling,mouse movement and totals them all up and sends them to the team stats page.

So come on, members wanted to push this great team up the world rankings.

Thanks for looking, now get clicking and join.

I've registered with them, but it seems there's no mac client yet? :(
It's been a few weeks for a few weeks.

Maybe soon.....in a few weeks

They have restarted development of a new mac client HERE

Also the forum talks about the 'old mac client' HERE

So it might be an idea to join the forum and find out if you can still get the old mac client to be going on with. You can join the forum without being a team member or being part of Whatpulse, it's a totally separate thing!

Found one thread in their forum, it says the old version works in theory but not in practice, that was one of their tech guys. Think I'll wait and see what transpires.

OK, I've tried to join. Have registered and activated an account, downloaded the software but when I try to install it, it gets to the last stage and then comes up with "Error, can't connect to server." Any ideas?

You running any kind of firewall, either windoze default or 3rd party?

Post by **Woodles** » Thu Jan 31, 2008 12:38 pm

Windows firewall is turned off, I connect through a LAN so I don't know what's running at the actual connection end.

Boinc works fine, the program downloaded fine and I've no problems with anything else, just registering for this.

Given up trying to get it to connect and deleted it, shame really, sounded like it might have been interesting.

The internet connection you use.
Is it your own connection, or one you share with someome else?

As I don't actualy know what outbound port whatpulse uses.
So if it's a non standard one, there could always be the chance that the adsl? router is firewalled and is blocking the comunication.

Or any mixture of things on your system, anti-virus, anti-spyware, host file, or even just you ISP.

Or none of the above, it just don't work this week but next week it works fine, got to love that one!
