Question about what goes on in this forum

[SexyGreyFox]

This is actually a question off my daughter.

She was asking me about other people using idle time on peoples computers for things like cancer research etc and I told her OCUK have something similar with SETI.
I presume you install a programme and set your preferences?
Can this programme run while you are logged off?

Thanks

It's a question my daughter asked because she is working on something for her Uni project but the machines would have to be logged off.
