Welcome. First off, it is dual-boxing not duel-boxing. Just wanted to point that out. ;) There are some keyclone like programs but honestly for the money you can't bet Keyclone itself. If you are going to take up the hobby of dual-boxing it is more than worth the cost.

Oh and to answer your other question you can dual-box without software just by having two copies of wow loaded and alt-tabbing or having wow running on two machines. It isn't nearly as effective as boxing using keyclone or another key cloning software but it is okay if you just want a heal bot or want to power level a lowbie alt.

hmmm ok thanks, so means there is no free softwareThere are, Octopus and others, they are free. If you're dual-boxing though usually $20 is a drop in the bucket to other expenses when getting started up and keyclone's support is well worth the fee and the license is for life. Check out the software portion of these forums, the other alternatives to software boxing are posted there!

Oh and welcome. :)
