How to create a botnet

In my last post I wrote about Bots, today I'm gonna show you how to create a bot. It's just for educational purpose and I'm not responsible for any damage to any system or website or network. Creating and using a bot is an illegal job, so just try it on your own system or network. I take no responsibility for what you do with this tutorial.

So, Let's start.

Firstly you need to download the bot which you can get from here.

Now, in this archive you will find 2 directories, open the optima_10_cp to configure the bot.

Step 1: Create SQL DataBase in your hosting and upload table dump (sql/optima.sql)

Step 2: Set DataBase name, login and password in configuration file: inc/config.php

Step 3: Set CHMOD 666 in: inc/config.php

Step 4: Welcome to Optima control panel in: http://your_domain/adm/index.php

default administrator account:

login: optima
password: optima

default guest account:

login: demo
password: demo

you can change this (and othner options) in: inc/config.php

Step 7: Upload all these files and folders to your host.

Step 8: Go to Xa folder and open XaBuilder.exe to build the bot.

You'll get the Xa.exe ehich will act as your bot, execute it on victim's PC and open your admin panel.
Now you can send commands to your bot.
