[Lowlypawn]

This blows!!!! Check this link out or go to Team Lamb Chop for more info. http/arstechnica.infopop.net/OpenTopic/page?q=Y&a=tpc&s=50009562&f=122097561&m=952096077
Basically with this hack U can complete “fake” a work unit in seconds!!!
I’m not sure is 3.3 got hacked but I would bet a new client is in the works and fast.
I hope no one on Toms team is using this.
Thx&Cya

WOW,
I hope none of our guys are doing this. I really hope the 3.03 client gets manditory SOON. It's supprising what some of these people are doing, using old clients cheating WU's. Everyone gets so absorbed by the stats they forget about the science.

They are still posting back and forth over there about this. Why would you fake WU's? I'm glam the project made 3.03 manditory!!! It's about time. I can't imagine people still using and old client just to better there stats.

I'm glad it's mandatory now. Now everybody is equal. I used 3.0 until 3.03 became mandatory.

From what I read the 3.03 was also hackable. I think berkely already know about this how could they not know.
