Honestly, with the difficulty as high as it is, unless you have 100mh+, I'd join a pool.
I ran with pool for a short time, was clocking about 1.2mh, but still want to try solo with a stand alone!
I downloaded the a couple from the OP, just don't have a clue how to set up miner n conf file?

I you want to mine for a couple months without finding a block then by all means go solo.  But if you want to actually get some coins for your hardwork then you need to stay on a pool.
The time to mine solo is when difficulty is less than 20.  Darkcoin's difficulty just crossed 2000.  But if you are hell bent on mining solo, by all means........

You are right, but if he wants to try ... I can imagine that it's frustrating to read "don't waste your time" instead of a real answer.
