Here's the gist: RSA Data Labs has a reward for anyone who can crack their RC5-72 code. The Bovine Project at www.distributed.net has organized an effort to meet this challenge. The way it works is that you install a program on your system that tests each individual key to see if it's the solution, coordinating with the server so that no efforts are duplicated. It only uses processor cycles that you aren't using, so it doesn't slow down your system. Once they get the servers back online, you'll be able to sign up for the team that we're running-- if your key cracks the code, you get a thousand dollars and the Witches' Voice gets another grand. If none of our team cracks the code, then we've still accomplished something: good publicity for the Pagan community and aid for the effort for a safer internet.

Just install and install the client on your system, and make sure you punch in your e-mail address so you get proper credit.Go to the site and have it send you your password, then you can go to the team stats page and join. Once you appear in the team stats, e-mail me and I'll send you the team password.

Members of Team Witchvox-64: The RC5-64 project has ended. Please update your client to the latest version. Your team affiliation will remain the same, but your progress will be be credited towards the RC5-72 contest instead.
