What are the specific rules for running Folding@home software?

Folding@home (FAH) is a major scientific endeavor, but is also a kind of contest for some donors to see who can donate the most points. In order to keep a sense of fair competition, we asked donors to help us establish a list of rules. Please see the Best Practices FAQ. We thank everyone for their contributions and hope they will enjoy competing and donating to the project.
