It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

I would avoid using guiminer till you understand a few things.

Most pools give you the basic command line to start cgminer and the like.

Most pools are easy to use, and you only need to figure out how to use cgminer or bfgminer. Smiley
