Hello all.
I have just starting trying out this whole dual boxing thing for the time being with a trial account.
I have purchased a copy of keyclone and set it up as per the guides on the keyclone site and the videos from vyndree, and its all working nicely.
But my question is when I controlling the main client, and someone whispers me, when I reply how can I stop the clones from also replying to the person who whispered me ?
I have tried putting / and enter/return in the do not pass list but I still seem to end up with gobblygook on the screen of my clones, i.e. they saying gibberish on /s or something.
Also an off topic question what keys if any do you have in do not pass, I currently have the wasd and arrow keys and return/enter atm, just so I can leave the keys bound on the actually characters themselves in case I needed to move them independently. I couldn't find a comprehensive list on the wiki or the forums of ideas of what people use in there.

Just hit the Keyclone "override" button to temporarily disable broadcasting so that only your main replies.
If you're using Jamba then the bonus is that even if the whisper was to a drone, you can reply from the main and the sender will see the reply as if it came directly from the drone.
I don't have any keys in any of the various lists that KC lets you maintain - my setup relies entirely on simple key broadcasting - so I'll leave it to others to share their experience on that :)

I found it more useful to use the white list option in Keyclone to only send the keys I actually needed. That stopped a lot of the unintended things like chat problems etc, just remember to put the arrow keys on there so you can still move if necessary if your main dies.
If you need to block all keys or send all keys to write macros or send emotes, you can set up override keys as needed.

if you hit the pause/break button it will stop any keystrokes from being sent to additional instances. So simply hit the pause break button, then type your reply.

I changed from multiboxer v2 to jamba, but now people on my friends list cant invite my main character into groups, I will auto join but then I will leave the group again, why is that ? how can I stop that ? cause sometimes I may want to go into heroics with friends.

I have about the equivalent of F1-F12 and 0-9 - = [ ] \ arrows, q and e on my whitelist - this gives me a good 2 bars worth of combined abilities plus some extras for target, assist, follow, mount, and interact with target buttons. I like having q and e pass so i can strafe the whole group out of an aoe most of the time without losing proper target facing.
Edit: the thing I always forget, even now, is that I can chat just fine as long as i remember to use the numpad for chat numbers, and don't hold down q or e too long when typing :)

I actually broadcast all keys to my my Alts but i changed some of the keybindings on the accounts. I changed ENTER to INS for opening chat and / to SHIFT-/ so that if i'm chatting on my main i dont spam with the alts. I do try to remember to hit override for keyclone before i chat though otherwise my team starts jumping and blasting chain heals randomly :)

Hmmm. I've never seen that behaviour.
There was a problem just after 3.1 hit the live servers whereby the previous version of Jamba would decline invitations from pretty much everybody, but I've never heard of it automatically leaving a group once joined.
All I can suggest is that you make sure you have the very latest Jamba and go through all the configuration options to make sure they have sensible values (remembering to push the changes to your drones too).
Maybe somebody else can help with that particular problem.

What I did is just put my enter key as override. That way i never have to worry about chatting. I left pause as second override just incase enter cant be used for some reason or other.
Edit: One issue I have thought about but havent came across yet is when setting up some addons this might be a issue.
