First id like to say Hi, im new to the Dual-Boxing Community and new to Boxing.
Id just like to know what is a good program to be using?
I started out by trying HotKeyNet but the script i found dident seem to work so now im using AutoHotKey which seems to be working fairly well but id really like to be able to use mouse click's and i can not seem to find script for it.
But
Have i started at a good spot?
I mean is this a good program to be using for wow Boxing? (With mouse click's etc)
Iv seen on the forums alot of people are using HotKeyNet is this a good program to use?
Im keen to try ISBoxer but still need to talk the wife into letting me shell out more cash on wow. lol.
Any help or input would be great,
Thanks.

Have you looked at the Newbie's guides sticked at the top of this subsection? The first one (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/36955-Newb-s-Guide-to-Multiboxing-Start-here-if-you-are-brand-new-to-Multiboxing) includes links to various programs and tutorials on how to use them, including my guide for HotKeyNet (http://genus-industri.us/wp/2011/09/09/configuring-a-hotkeynet-starter-script/).

Yeah thanks, i should have mentioned that i did read the Newbie's guide. I was at work when i wrote my first post.
Thanks for your link to your guide im reading it now and trying HotKeyNet out again, while reading your guide i noticed i made a critical newb mistake"Scroll Lock" http://www.dual-boxing.com/images/smilies/rolleyes.png.
I will be having another run with this tonight to see how i go.

Heres the thing. Nearly all of the multiplexer software out now a days have been debugged enough, that they all will do the job just fine. Its sorta down to... "what do you want to do with it?" as the question to ask yourself.
Opinions are in excess, especially on the internet. (For example) I may like one software, vs Khat there, may like another. Going back to my statement, now a question. What do you want to do with it?
OH! and welcome. :)
Hi Musterd. ISBoxer is something like $3/mo with a free 7 day trial. It takes a little while to figure out, but well worth it.

Yeah well im only just starting out, so first off is Dual leveling toons. So i need to be able to use the mouse clicks to accept quests, looting ect for my Slave while being on my Master. and any thing else along them lines. in the future when i happy with my set up i want to try doing some dungens and maybe PvP.
So thats what i would like todo.
Iv given HotKeyNet another go, couldent play and test it much last night since the servers where down, but had a test this morning before leaving for work. It worked ok a few little actions i will need to look into, that i got use to with my AutoHotKey script that i Pasted togetha. Like Slaves attacking my new target automaticaly when i attack. Rather then hitting my assit button every time.
And i also dident think the mouse clicking was working every time, i had my clones open a couple of NPC chat box's but then it stopped working. thay where targeting the wrong NPC.
My thought on this, is that maybe coz on there screen the npc im clicking on might not be in plain sit of the slave or another NPC is in the way. dident think of that t the time.
I Need to set up Jamba as well, there alot of bloody options there lol. The guides i have found so far on it look like thay are from older versions.
So as it is im gonna stick with HotKeyNet for now.
And thanks to Khatover found some good guides to have a look at, Thanks.
Thanks for the welcome Apps :D

I wouldn't use mouse passing for targetting NPCs/picking up quests. For things like that, you want to set up Click to Move and Interact with Target. See the bottom of this post (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/36955-Newb-s-Guide-to-Multiboxing-Start-here-if-you-are-brand-new-to-Multiboxing?p=322299&viewfull=1#post322299) and into the next one (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/36955-Newb-s-Guide-to-Multiboxing-Start-here-if-you-are-brand-new-to-Multiboxing?p=322300&viewfull=1#post322300). Using mouse passing means the slaves need to have the same view as the master. If their point of view is slightly off or obstructed, your mouse will pass to the wrong location.
I would also use Jamba for the actual quest NPC interaction so you don't have to pass your mouse to select every individual quest. Jamba automatically mirrors whatever you select on your master to your slaves. My Jamba guide (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/28573-Jamba-Getting-Started) is mostly up to date. The only thing that's actually changed from when I wrote the guide is the re-addition of the Jamba-Target section, which has documentation here (http://www.dual-boxing.com/threads/16181-Jamba-Target-Documentation?p=148042#post148042).

$50/year; $15/quarter... I believe is the new pricing for IS Boxer.
It is a subscription based option, and probably the strongest option in terms of what you can do with it.
Not saying to use it or another option, but aside from Pwnboxer... every option is either free or has a trial period, so you can experiment to see what works best for you.
There's good support for IS Boxer and HKN, on these forums (and on their respective pages: www.isboxer.com and www.hotkeynet.com).
Keyclone has good support, via his website: www.solidice.com/keyclone
