To begin, I'm going to assume you know how to at least unzip the bot to it's own directory, and I'm going to assume you can turn the bot on and off....other than that, here's a step by step how to for the bot. Psst...if you have a problem, and you did NOT read this, do NOT come to me or anyone in ]I[ with that problem.

]I[.bot 1.05 ]I[.bot was created by ][)iv]I[ne and ]I[ntervation of ]I[nfinite ][)eaths. Version 1.05 by |2ø§']['hØ®Ñ and ]I[.ZeRo. For help, troubleshooting, complaints, suggestions, death-threats, and/or bug-reports not covered in this or the online help file, feel free to contact me:
]I[nfinite ][)eaths ©1999 First Time Running 1. First you gotta unzip it. Stick it in it's own directory...if you can't get that far, step away from your computer, pull out a loaded gun, and shoot yourself. 2. Run ]I[.bot.exe. First it should ask you to fill in the Setup Info box (for iRC). Full name and email address do not have to be real...you may make something up. Nickname and Alternative are the nicks you are gonna use while chatting on irc...alternative is used if your main nick is already in use on logging on. You can leave the server box blank. Click on the Local Info tab and make sure both "Local Host" and "IP" are checked under: "On Connect Always Get:". Click on the Ident tab after you fill in all that, and type in something for User ID. (I use RoSe for mine if you need an example.) If you are using a firewall, click on the Firewall tab and enter necessary info, if it's not a SOCKS firewall, just click the bottom box "Initiate DCCs thru Firewall". Uncheck the "Pop up Connect Dialogue Box on Startup" if you don't want that setup box to show up each time you run the bot. 2. The bot should then ask you to enter account name and password. This is the bot's name and password. You must enter a valid name and pass (ie.-valid battle.net account). To change this later, just right-click in the @diablo window, go to Bot Functions, then Set Acct information. After entering name and pass, it will ask you a shitload of other questions, you will only have to answer these once. You may press "No" on continuing the setup at any pause in the questions...but failure to answer the first few may result in a bot that won't connect or work right. 3. After you get it all filled in, it should try to connect. If your bot won't connect to the irc server, you may have to change the irc server to make it connect. If you are on AOL you must use an AOL friendly irc server. One example is irc.aol.com. Right click in the Status window and go to Server --> Set irc server. You should also do this to change the default iRC server it connects to if you don't like the one it has by default. 4. Once your bot connects to the iRC server, it will request a DCC chat for bnet. Accept to get on bnet. If your bot tries to connect to bnet and you hear a clicking noise followed by the message "Connection from .... refused" that means either bnet is being stupid and your server is down or you have a bot already connected to that server. Do not touch anything!! Your bot will keep trying different bnet servers till one connects. If you want to specify a certain server, right click in the @diablo window, go to Bot Functions, then Set Battle.net server to use. Pick a server to connect to. DO NOT EVER type in battle.net or exodus.battle.net for a server. Always use a number iP and not the words. Right-click in the Status window and go to Connection --> Connect --> Battle.Net if your bot doesn't seem to be trying to connect to battle.net or you accidently hit cancel on the DCC chat request. 5. Tada! You now have your ]I[.bot on battle.net...wasn't too hard now was it? Confusion Explained Having a bot on both iRC and bnet at once creates a few unique problems, I'll try to explain the ones I've found for you. When you turn on the bot, it will autoconnect to the irc server, then try to connect to bnet. It gets on bnet thru a DCC chat. DCC = Direct Computer to Computer...ie: your ip to a bnet ip. A window will popup asking if you want to chat with yourself - accept if you want on bnet. If the bnet server is dead or refuses you, you will get those chat requests till one connects. If one stalls (really lagged bnet server) just close it. If your bot doesn't seem to be doing anything (stalled connection) close all the open dcc chat windows, right-click in the Status window, goto Connection --> Connect --> Battle.Net. If you are familiar with mIRC, you may try changing options in the menubar to autoaccept DCC chats, I suggest you don't do this, it will probably cause you more problems than it's worth. Each time you disconnect from your irc server and reconnect, it will try to connect to bnet again...if it's on autoaccept DCC chats, you will end up with a few open chat windows, several of which will endlessly try to connect to bnet (even when you are already ON bnet), I suggest leaving each chat request as a decision you have to make. If you switch servers on irc or disconnect and reconnect to an irc server, a DCC chat window will pop up asking if you will accept. This is the Battle.net connection again. If you are already on bnet or don't want on bnet, hit cancel. If you are on iRC but not bnet and would like to log back onto bnet, right-click in the Status window, goto Connection --> Connect --> Battle.Net. If you are on bnet and want to log off, without turning off the bot, right-click in the Status window, goto Connection --> Disconnect --> Battle.Net. If you are on both irc and bnet and want to leave irc, don't worry about losing your battle.net connection. You can switch servers or quit irc all you want without affecting the bnet connection. The DCC chat for bnet is linked to your computer, irc has nothing to do with it once it is established. The DCC chat connection for bnet uses the irc nickname you had when the connection was opened. If you do a /nick and change your name on irc while on bnet, you will not be able to talk or do much of anything but watch bnet until you /nick back to the name you had upon connection. Make sure you set your nickname in the File --> Setup Info box to a nick you plan to stay with awhile. Your iRC nick doesn't have to be your battle.net nick, but it does have to be the nick you had when the DCC chat was accepted. Disconnecting from irc (and therefore 'losing' your nick) will not affect bnet unless you log back on to irc and change nicks. Keep in mind, what you type in the @diablo window will take effect on bnet, what you type in an iRC window will take effect on iRC. Typing /join #Dark_Redemption in the @diablo window will put you in channel Dark_Redemption on Bnet, not iRC. Typing, etc. in iRC channels won't flood you off bnet, flooding off bnet won't flood you off your irc server. Typing a /command to trigger an alias (ex. - /pages or /diabloc in the @diablo window will on bnet may not work. The bot automatically prefixes what you type in the @diablo window with the needed words to send to the battle.net server, try typing the alias command in the Status window or another irc window. If you find other problems or confusion dealing with irc/bnet connections, AND you have taken the time to look for an answer in this help file, contact me, I will help you! Scroll up to the top ^ to learn how to find me :) iRC Functions Ok, I'm not getting into the whole 99 hours it would take to write down all this bot will do on iRC...so just connect to iRC and find out. You will have popup menus in the Status window, each channel window, each query window, the menubar, and the nickname list box in a channel. Each of these menus will be different from the others, and offer iRC commands not shown in the right-click menu in the @Diablo (bnet) window. Most of the complicated shit has an Explanation option in the menus...press it and see! All user access is done by host address, not nickname...so don't worry about clones stealing your friend's irc nicks and using the bot. One word of caution - AOL users (*!*@*ipt.aol.com) and others on a very large, very popular ISP probably have similar host addy's...anyone on AOL with a password could control the bot if you are foolish enough to give an AOL person access. Battle.Net Functions While your bot is turned on, right click in the @diablo window...you should get a pop-up menu showing the following options:

/w1 (message) whispers back to last person to whisper you
/diabloc - connet to bnet
/r opens this readme
