Check out the website that is devoted to RSA encryption. It has some interesting
contests on factoring a large composite number into a product of primes.
For links on Einstein, look at:
Proth.exe is a Win95 program by Yves Gallot
which efficiently implements Proth's theorem and allows anyone to find very large primes.

GIMPS is dedicated to a rigorous search for new Mersenne primes. Our goal is to
test every Mersenne number with an exponent less than 20,500,000.
