New Software- IdleMiner

[idleminer]

Indeed it doesn't but we were advocating scanning everything you download as a good general precaution. The thing about using PG and blocking is that if you block everything you'll actually make it impossible for the program to do certain things it has to do to work.

Anyhow you can just dumbin the segments to check and see if there are any nonstandard sections (there aren't) and run depends.exe on it and see if its using anything out of the ordinary (like security token functionality, which it isn't).

1) can it handle SNGs? (especially Speed SNGs which all have the same table name 'cause party is crap)

2) can you set it to run, even if you don't have the screensaver active?

[idleminer]

1) Currently it cannot handle SNG's but that is somethign we will look into adding. It seems like alot of people want to mine these.

2) Yes you can just start it running any time you want from from the window that opens any time you run the program.

Just use some ".code" or ".text" segments and hide the code away using some simple xor-ing, or even better just hide it away in some random data-file or a stenographed image.

Then once you have unpacked your code at some random time in the future, use these three 'ordinary' functions to drop a ".exe" or ".com" and fire it up:

Kernel32:CreateFileA
Kernel32:WriteFile
Shell32:ShellExecute

I'm not saying your app has anything nasty in it. I'm just pointing out that it's almost impossible to be sure it hasn't.

I am just plain not getting a password sent to me. I am entering everything correctly...4 times now. It's not being delivered to my junkmail folder. Is there any way to manualll send me my password?

I have it and have used it. I like it a lot and know the person who wrote it and can confirm the legitimacy 100%.

If stox says it's good to go, I will to try it out. Stox, is the author a friend of yours?

[idleminer]

PM me your username and I'll send you a password manually. Anyone else who is having the same problem can do the same. We're looking in to what could be causing this but it looks like the e-mails are going through fine on our end.

This has been working great since i downloaded it late afternoon. I also received the password immediately.

Any plans to make this mine for SnG tournaments ?

[idleminer]

It is in the works and should be in the next patch. Which, by the way, are completely automated so there is no need to watch for a new release [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
