    Pardon my ignorance of NMC. Where do I get a NMC wallet?
    This website is all about the new namecoin wallet. http://dot-bit.org/Main_Page
    It has a list on the right hand side for different operating systems.
    Version 0.3.24.64 :
            Linux 32bits by Khal
            Linux 64bits by Khal
            Windows by twobits

    I wouldn't go for the earlier downloads, they had some flaws and most of the mining pools will support the new 3.24.64 distro.

    Once you get it installed look at this page http://dot-bit.org/InstallAndConfigureNamecoin
    It has the same caching format as bitcoin, meaning it needs to get all of the blocks before it can payout.  Then you add the namecoin address to your favorite mining pool.[/list]

    Yeah, I tried running the Windows version by twobits. I setup a config file as instructed, but namecoind doesn't seem to work.

    Note: The namecoind file will only open and have a flashing underscorer "_".  You need to open another cmd prompt to type in the configuration, or the "namecoind getinfo" command.  You have to cd to the directory first.  If this is your first time using cd (change directory) then I would research it first.  For instance mine is in a folder on the desktop so I would type "cd \Users\Username\Desktop\NameCoin"
    Then you can type in the namecoind and the other commands (type "namecoind help").
