This depends on how you first set-up the client during the install.
There are two options for this:
•asknet=yes This will pop-up a small window asking you if you are ready to connect at the completion of each work unit. In this instance you would connect to the internet via your method, and then tell it OK. This is normally for those that have a connection that has to have a username and password entered before connecting to the internet.
•asknet=no This will send and receive work units without any user intervention. Normally for people that are on always-on connections.
Note: When using the console version as an installed service, there will be no message box popup. It only prints the message asking to connect to the console window, which you can't see when running as a service, and to the FAHlog.txt file.
To install the console version as a service and also use the "Ask before connect" feature, follow these steps:
• Go to Start > Run and type services.msc in the box and press the Enter key.
• Find the Folding@Home entry in the services listings. Right click (left click if you use a lefty mouse). Then select Properties.
• In the Properties window, click on the Log On tab.
• Click on the box to the left of Allow service to interact with desktop.
• Click the Apply button and then OK.
• Restart the client.
