Well I'd have a large enough case to enclose several motherboards etc. and then have all cables connect to a breakout panel to prevent weeping. As far as cooling goes, you simply pump the oil out of the case and down an inflatable slide/kiddie-pool. a pump at the end of the slide in the kiddie-pool returns the oil and completes the circuit. As far as cost goes, you simply have several women in white undergarments slip and slide down for several hours, wrestle, gyrate, and collect fees from onlookers in order to recoup the cost of oil and additional hardware. After several weekend the mining rig will more than pay for itself, even with several difficulty increases. Coffee filters can be used to collect any lost body piercings or hair scrunchies that my get lost along the way.

There's a rather large difference between my avg. Mhash on the webUI for deepbit compared to my GUIMiner stats. difficulty increase or not, I find a 33% discrepancy to be rather peculiar to say the least. With BTCGuild, all my stats were spot on.

If only the value of BTC went up along with the difficulty Mining is still profitable for me but if the value gets left behind as difficulty takes off... It's a depressing thought that one day I may have to hang up my hard hat...

So I've clicked through all 30 pages and I DIDN'T SEE ONE SUBMERGED SETUP. I am dissapoint.

Well I guess if the botnet was poorly configured and only netting a few Ghash it really wasn't worth having around if all it was really doing was gumming up the system. I was thinking it was in the 10s - 100s of Ghash and netting us blocks like crazy. So had it been asking for a proper amount of work, and completing it appropriately, would this thread even exist or would we be carrying on business as usual?

If the botnet is bringing in block after block that the pool gets to share, then it would be beneficial to those who have less powerful PCs. I'd be more worried about botnets on a competitor's pool.

375 Mhash per core, please tell me exactly how you did that I'm currently getting 349.9 per core on my 5970 @ 840 Mhz (500 Mhz RAM) using phoenix miner via GUIMiner v2011-06-14. flags as follows: VECTORS BFI_INT AGGRESSION=20 worksize=128 I don't see a real difference between an aggression level of 20 or 12 according to device manager my driver is 8.861.0.0 BIOS Version 012.013.000.002 AMD Catalyst 11.6 SDK v2.1.0.0 (according to add remove programs) I am still quite new to bitcoin, if I have used any flags incorrectly, or am using outdated/poorly optimized software combinations, please let me know.

So um, why exactly are botnets bad, wouldn't the additional hash power be beneficial for our cause? Could the stats of the botnet please be posted so we can all get a better understanding of what the network was doing and why it had to be rid of?
Total Mhash toward pool Total bandwidth of pool server(s) used (amount in percentage as well) Blocks found coins generated shares number of workers
Also, if bandwidth was the ultimate issue, what if the zombie network funneled work to a server of the hacker. Would it have been better for the hacker to create his own pool, or could the hacker have have lumped all the data and submitted it to the pool from a single location, thus lessening the load of the BTC G server that would otherwise have to deal with multiple connections to thousands of individual miners?

I'd join, if it weren't so damn hard to find some friends, let alone friends with capable PCs.

interesting way to keep out the riff raff.

The 20 seconds or so it takes to bootup my PC drives me nuts. No way in hell I'd sit around for a minute to destroy something that has no meaning to me. This guy is obviously either trolling, or a poor worker with too much time on his hands (that his company is paying for). I must admit, it would be pretty funny to see this guy explain his way out of crap if/when he gets caught utilizing massive co. resources for personal use (profit or not, the company would still be pissed).
Then again, the guy could be like me and have the skill-set to smooth talk his way out of anything, but it's more fun to contemplate his demise over something so trivial.

what are the pros and cons of trade hill vs bitcoin7?

I switched from BTCG to DB due to the DDOS (why are botnets so bad anyways?) and so far it seems my payouts aren't nearly as high as when I was with BTCG. Sure my uptime is better, but whats the point of being connected 100% of the time when being connected at <24/7 yields more profits (in my case anyways).

4 hours can seem like an eternity, but a long nap can take care of that.
