    Are you talking about computer power or space for Cloud storage? I'm not sure I understand. Can you explain more?

    I also would like to be able to get more information. I kinda felt that there should be a little extra information given to those of us that are interested.

    Mhhh... sounds like your computer is either used for mining some sort of e-currency (bitcoin, litecoin etc.) or involved in a botnet.

    Ask them what they use your computer power for. If they are legit, they should tell you, if not - RUN

    I think you might be talking about Coingeneration which Provides you with a $1/day ,It basically uses GUI of your computer and uses many such computers to Make a powerful virtual machine,which is required by various companies.Basically Prolonged usage of such programs may hurt Life of your CPU,Hence use the program wisely. :)

    No it wouldn't, except it bounces your CPU usage to a constant 100%, which I doubt.

    Of course it will decrease CPU life, that is why most CPU's are under-clocked by default, and if it's a miner it probably does run near 100%.

    In either case, I wouldn't run this. $1 is not enough, depending on where you live in the world, electricity alone from using 300-500W (although most computers do not even run close to 100% all day long, in your case however it probably is since you are running a miner) would supersede $1/day.

    Read my sentence again - there is a little word in there which you might overlooked.

    Hint: it's except ;)
