Ah ok. Whalebone seemed pretty excited about where the future of this currency may lie when I spoke to him. Currently I'm using a little POS all-in-one HP touchsmart 600 with a stock Intel HD graphics card that I bought in 2010. Top of the line tech right there, I know. lol.

As for what program I'm using, it's CPUminer, which I grabbed from here somewhere this morning. I have no .bat file as I was just writing it direct into the prompt, and I wrote it out as --algo=scrypt --url= stratum+tcp://dot.pools.tripplehexxx.net:3333

A web article I read at Ars Technicia had it written out as --url=stratum+tcp://[whatever url]:3333 --userpass=[userpass].[workername]:[worker pass]

That's where I was getting stuck. I had no username, password, and I couldn't find an explanation as to what a worker was, and I certainly didn't have a password for that either.

Like I said I'm about as new as it comes to this.

first of all, you need to register at dot.pool, there you get your worker. Put a name on the worker. After that you use it like this: "poolusername.workername" .
Example for cpu miner: minerd -a --scrypt -t 6 -s 4 -o stratum+tcp://dot.pools.triplehexxx.net:3333 -u poolusername.workername -p WorkerPassword
Best you put this in a text editor and save it as "miner.bat" (dont save it as .txt) in the programfile (same file as minerd.exe is in) of cpu miner. After a doubleclick the miner should start.
But in the moment you'll get not much coins with it. Nethash raised to 100mh and difficulty is really high (not really, but for this coin).

edit
if you post your wallet adress I'll send you some coins as wellcome Cheesy

Cool! I really appreciate you taking the time to explain all this to me, so thank you!
