Canister Wrote:you can make c++ applicable to anything. People don't do bots on c++ because there are more bnet resources available through vb6. Really c++ ain't hard, its pretty easy to learn. Yea a peer to peer and file transfer program is pretty easy to make. You can do that in a day with little experience.

I'd be interested in hearing what 'resources' are available to better one to make a bnet via VB6. I'd also like to know if VB6 could achieve the likes of memory re-allocation and injection. A simple example of how VB fails to deliver on lower level situations (if you want to call that lower level)..

My personal experience says there is none...
My personal experience also says there is much more available to a C++ coder than there is a VB coder. This is just known, period.

There are some significant limitations on VB6 (kindof old yeah? - Microsoft doesn't even support this anymore)...

Not sure if it would apply, as I'd never use VB6 as a basis to write a modern program, but if I wanted to run a serious attack with 100,000 bots, I'm not sure VB6 would succeed due to multi-threading limitations  - though I've never used VB personally so I wouldn't know the specifics.

In any event, if this program was written in C, it could be made cross-platform and GUI-less (front-end for skript kiddies). Let alone have a lot more control in terms of multi-threaded pinging. And to me would seem like a more logical approach to creating a tool. One that is multi-platform, efficient, and has less limitations.

In any event, I'm interested in seeing how this plays out.

PS: What is the difference between a 'load spam' and a 'flood spam'? I would assume both involve pinging the shit out of your target, but is there a difference between the two?
