Now that mining is so simple that even computer-illiterate Windows-users can do it, its time is almost over.
Any make almost-free money on the internet scheme goes that way... At first only a few people have it figured out, eventually too many of them are doing it so it becomes more profitable to sell Windows programs that do it than to actually run the programs yourself, then pretty soon it is just like all the "ten million email addresses on a CD, send emails to make money" and "automatically send ads to newsgroups, can send hundreds of thousands of ads per day, make a fortune" and "sign up other people underneath you into a vast pyramid" systems: either so overdone that there is no money in it anymore or so overdone that it gets banned or somesuch but either way there is only so much pie to go around and so many users of Windows that the amount any individual user gets of the pie becomes not worth fighting for, just making back the cost of the get rich quick tool gets hard...
