I think whacking a few of my 8-core Xeons onto this mystery project could somewhat subdue these pesky pirates

Straight from the official P@H website

"Pirates@Home is an ongoing test of BOINC, the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing. Pirates@Home is currently being used to test BOINC's forum software for possible use by another project, Interactions in Understanding the Universe. At present Pirates@Home is not doing any real scientific computation, we are just having 'fun' with BOINC."

We can let them have this one...

Hargh!

If the only thing they can find to beat us in is the equivalent of racing rubber ducks around the bathtub boincwise then they should hand their heads in shame and throw their cuttlasses to the 4 winds whilst singing a dirge while there jolly roger used used as a nappy for their incontinent captain.

Or sumthn...

They're only trying to divert some of our ships away from the main fleet in a cunning ploy. Not so cunning, says I, as it's been spotted a nautical mile off.

Filthy pirates playing their dirty underhand war
