Such a waste. I am not sure if the author considered that there is a maximum output of BitCoins per hour. So even if you have the greates botnet in the world, you can at most make a couple of thousands bucks every day. OK, better than nothing, but still, very wasteful.

Impressive to note that it can utilise the host's GPU if present. Nice touch, in an evil way.

Love the name. Anyone else think of this, especially since this program tries to "undermine" the Bitcoin network through distributed mining:<p>"BEHOOOOOOOOOLD, the UNDERMINER! I am beneath all of you, but NOTHING is BENEATH ME! I hereby declare WAAAAAAAR on PEACE and HAPPINESS!"
