Team FreeBSD is a distributed effort by FreeBSD supporters to crack the RC5-64 encryption (RSA Secret Key Challenge). This effort is coordinated by distributed.net using their RC5-64 "Bovine" client programs. These programs use ONLY idle time on your machine, affecting production use not at all. There are versions of the client available for FreeBSD as well as most other platforms.

So your CPU idle time could mean real cash $$ for FreeBSD. As of this posting, Team FreeBSD is now ranked #196 out of thousands and climbing fast!
