BTC-e to convert LTC to BTC, then use CampBX to exchange to USD then withdraw from campBX to dwolla then to your bank for free, or directly to bank from campBX via ACH for $2 fee.
This is all assuming you are in US.


Using coinbase.com is even easier.

So go from LTC to BTC then btc-e.com -> coinbase.com -> bank account -> profit

Running the deamon should still work with no issues. You won't have to connect it to a miner since you won't be mining solo. You'll connect your miner to a pool somewhere so they have no interaction at that point.

Is this the right place to ask this question?
I want to run Bitcoin-qt as a windows service so the server doesn't have to be logged into and will autostart on boot, but in 0.8.3 (which I just noticed is beta, so should I go to 0.8.2?) I want my server to run it 24/7 so it'll be ready to accept bitcoins anytime and so once I start mining it'll be good.

I tried sc \\servername create "BitCoin Server" binPath="C:\Program Files\Bitcoin\bitcoin-qt.exe -server -datadir=d:\bitcoin" DisplayName="BitCoin Server" start=auto

but that didn't work

in the options it has auto start on login but not on system start

Can someone help?

Check out the daemon instead of the full qt client. This will probably work much better as a service. If you're using Win7 or 8, it'll be located in "c:\Program Files(x86)\Bitcoin\daemon\bitcoind.exe". If you want to query your wallet, you'll have to use the command line if this is running.

LTC

And no, I won't be trading my LTC for BTC (unless it's for a bitchin profit)

Coins will continue to be mined for another ~100 years, so no issue there. Mining coins profitably is another thing

All BTC subsidies will be complete by 2140, however the last 40 years will be fractional coins, so who's to say it'll be worth it by then. I think the bigger question is ... Will SHA-256 even be a thought at that time? I seriously doubt it'll be around for another 20 years. Current ASICs IMO won't be useful for too much longer.

+1 on coinbase.com

You can link it to your bank account via ACH. I've been using them for a while now.
