Topic 192642

I'm a high school student from the US. After reading for sometimes about einsten@home, I've got pretty excited abt this project. However, I still couldn't get like how does this distributed computing works? :D Like, there's a new window (or a bar) working by its own showing an elapsed time and time remaining. I also learned like there will be a screen saver running. But apart from these, do I have to know anything else? So, does this einstein@home sorta works in like a viewbar thing, (like Agloco? I know it has nothing to do with monetary rewards, and it's solely based on voluntary service)
