I have noticed at well, larger bots get very problematic crash.

Many people, myself included, don't want to sell their wares on Clickbank, at least not all of them. PayPal is the most obvious first choice. Then I would think Clickbank and other Payment Gateways. But I highly doubt the majority of people want to use Clickbank.

I think they die and the only way to return is using $eval but not 100% sure. Be interested in hearing Eddies take.

You don't need to own the site, but you can get the email from each site you sign up for. You can even do that programatically. I know of a few services that do just this, with their own proprietary system, but I also do it myself. Even WordPress self hosted can be configured to do this.

You can use email posting for most sites and this works really well.

I wouldn't recommend ubot for that but rather some server side code.

There is market research at its finest.

Bank implies personal and it is not. Good name for libraries bad for a shared resource. My opinion of course.

What is up with the new name for Bot Source? Bot Bank is awful, Bot Source is a good name and appropriate. Bot Bank just doesn't make much sense and reminds me of a blood bank. Not that it matters much, but awful name to pick and I don't see why it needed to be changed in the first place. You had a good name already.

I wanted this functionality as well. A good example is testing proxies. As ubot has no tools to do this, the common way is to use a proxy judge script which reports results via headers. Since it responds to your ip you can't use a service like you mentioned to do this. It would be a nice feature but I much rather see ubot add tools to test proxies. This is desperately required and is done very well in Zenno. I need to test the following: Works/doesn't work Banned from Google Response time Country or origin Anonymous level and ip leakage Is codeen/planetlab

I just use $captcha solve and use host records as it is on a dedicated server. But really need pri/sec Captcha support to make good use out of it. It doesn't support many of the common ones but is getting better. Recaptcha support and learning will be a huge update.

Hardware is cheap and doesn't call in sick. Just have to get what you want automated down and you are all set. A lot of it is research and pro-active tasks. Many of it is to avoid interactive requirements, so it is ready when I want it to be. Much of it is custom code, some now ubot, most of it is c# and perl, but doing more ubot & c# myself now.

Lots of options there, but typically you can find a dual quad core with ~16GB ram loaded with SAS 10k (ideally 15K) drives for under $1,000 if you really keep your eyes peeled or have some automation in place. They worth twice the price but will handle a lot of virtual machines or one big machine if you go that route. I have quite a few of them, I think I'm up to 12 or 13 right now.

I just keep an eye out on Ebay for heavy servers for a good price. I have some scripts I run that notify me as I always need hardware in my datacenter.

I can easily get 10-30 VM's off my $800 servers I get. You can get servers that have more hardware and get about 4x the density from them (although the price goes up exponentially for those servers and are not commonly found used yet). I also don't think you really need one box as often as he is using them. So for 20 boxes, I'd suspect 5-10 VM's would be more than enough. But 100 VM's for 3 servers is extremely doable although may not be ideal depending on the operating system and application requirements.

You can get a lot out of one powerful server using VMWare and other solutions. VMWare ESXi 5 is completely free, if you want fail over and management tools you need to buy a license (starts at $500 and gets expensive fast). But even the free license you can run a few hundred machines off 2-3 servers pretty easily.

I have a sneaky suspicion a $1000 server off Ebay (got my last 2xQuad 3.16 16GB Ram 6x146 SAS 15K system for $800 shipped, this thing rips and runs a ton of VMs) can probably run the load of every single one of those computers running the free version of ESXi (VMWare Enterprise Server). If it can't you can easily add another box and even go to the $500 license that gives you 3 servers and one control server. Life would be so much easier. This will even add in redundancy and real time failover if you had shared storage. But with UBot 4, I don't understand why you can't use the same PC sin

Holy smokes, VMWare anyone?

I break a ton free using local tools.

I think I know which one you mean And support for ubot is right around the corner . I actually did the ubot testing and it works great but doesn't support recaptxha yet but does support xrumer.

I've bought followers before if you just want counts but really doesn't do jack as there is zero engagement. You have to be involved and offer something otherwise you just get numbers.

Pretty cool, thanks for the share TJ!

Yes it may do so in final compiled form, I hope they don't go this route. I am more looking forward to private libraries and I will make and support my own functions.

Actually they can update botsource without an update to Ubot, as per Eddie.

Proxies and threads are broken still and just end up causing browser crashes.
