Good to see the beta project back on-line. :-)

As part of downloading the 4.02 client I also received fftw3.dll, anybody know what this dll does? Maybe its someway of optimizing the client?

Thanks

I believe that it's a library extention for the application that allows it to run the optimized FFTW code. It should speed up the crunching times for your WU's.

It's just part of the <a href="http://fftw.org/">FFTW</a> package.
