Monero botnet for noobs (like myself)

This is a guide to build a monero botnet from noob for noobs.

I've build a setup to create your own 'installer' which installs a hidden miner on the target computer. If you follow the steps you end up with a installer mining to your specified address. When the miner is shutdown through taskmanager it will restart itself after 99 seconds and when the target pc reboots it will also start again after 99 seconds.

UPDATE MARCH 2018: I've updated the miner so it will continue to work after the hard fork of monero in the upcoming weeks. You HAVE to update. Old miners will very soon not work at all anymore.

password: miner

1) download the rar folder

2) create a new folder

3) make an exception for this folder in your antivirusprogram. (why? Because miners are flagged by a lot of antivirus software, so defender would quarantine your miner before it's even build.)

4) extract the rarfolder in this folder

5) run setup.exe

6) follow the steps.

7) now you have a file called Installer.exe.

What I usually do with it is create youtube accounts, download videos like "free photoshop installer", rename the file to something like "Photoshop CC Installer.exe", upload it to the google drive connected to your new youtube account. Change upload defaults (youtube.com/upload_defaults), throw in a bunch of tags and write in description: "new download link: ...", with a link to your installer on google drive, and upload all the videos about free photoshop installer all at once.

How to check how your mining is going?

Check the file "Information.txt", go to the pool in the file (probably monero.hashvault.pro) and fill in your address on the site. There you can track how many miners are working and how much money you are earning.
