Well, I just found out that my "proxy issues" are not really issues with the FAH client, but that my work has blocked the FAH client from running. That's just too bad because I have several systems that are running 24x7 that could be put to good use. I would suggest some way of creating a "offline client" where I could download the work at home, drop the work into the client at work, and take the results home to upload. It sounds tedious, but still worth the trouble. Maybe this is something I can already do with the existing clients? I wont be able to try it out until Monday, but should I be able to let my home client get a WU in the morning, stop it, and bring that WU into work and take the results home for the home client to upload?

There won't be offline client, because of the time critical nature of the WUs (you have to return them before a certain deadline).

There's a way called Sneakernetting that will allow you to transfer WU to offline machines, but that's getting complicated fast : http://fahwiki.net/index.php/Sneakernetting

P.S : you have to get (written) permission from the owner of the machine before running FAH on it.
