Personally, at this point, I would strongly discourage putting any GIMPS
software on any machine but your own unless you're 100% positive you have
permission to do so.  It'll only cause grief, as well intentioned as it may
be (speaking from experience here).  Some people just don't appreciate the
"art" of it I guess. :-)
