We will need to get some emails first. We will
load a predefined "Hotmail sign-up" macro, to do
so.
First, we will go over to the "Run Specific
Options" screen, to load up the Hotmail
CAPTCHA.
Now, we can go over to the config-manager to
load up the macro itself.
We will be creating 10 hotmail accounts. The
DeCaptcher service will be disabled, so we will
be entering the CAPTCHAs manually.
We will also be running 10 threads at once. One
thread for each account. Proxies will not be
needed now, since Hotmail is OK with around 10
accounts per IP address. Of course, if we
wanted to create more accounts we could easily
enable proxy support from the "Settings" menu.
Ok, everything is loaded now, let's run the
configuration.
We can keep the "process control" tab open to
have a look at each and every thread that is
currently being executed. Here, we can "kill" (in
other words, exit) all threads or suspend them
until we are ready to resume again. Output,
which is generated according to settings defined
under the "Settings->Output File" option, is
displayed under the "Output" tab.
Feel free to skip this part, as all we will be doing
here is solving the CAPTCHAs.
Ok, we are done. Lets have a look at the output,
copy it to clipboard and store it in a temporary
file for later access.
Why don't we try logging in, into a random
account.
Alright, everything seems to be working fine.
Next, we will be creating two separate macros.
The first one, will be a simple signup macro for
1888pressrelease.com, the second one will
allow us to perform a login into our newly
created 1888pressrelease.com account.
We will be using one of our freshly created
"Hotmail" emails, for this procedure.
Lets first clear up the output tab, head over to
the "Config-Manager" screen and define a new
configuration.
It's a fairly basic procedure, once again. We will
have to give this configuration a new name,
defien its initial URL and, once the site has
finished loading, go ahead and define the fields.
We've finished defining all of the elements and
can proceed to the "submit button" now.
Remember, the submit button, must be defined
during the second step of the "learning"
process and can not be identified during the
initial step of the procedure.
We can go ahead and proceed to the next step,
letting the application automatically define the
submit button, since there's only one present,
Ok, time to define the CAPTCHA image. We
can do so, by simply right-clicking on the
CAPTCHA element.
Note that the application will ask us if we want
to store this CAPTCHA in the global CAPTCHA
config database. Let's do so.
Alright we are done. Lets give the configuration a
discription and don't forget to save it.
Lets load the configuration now and create one
test account using the previously registered
Hotmail email. We will be running this
configuration in "debug mode", scanning the
macro for potential errors.
Alright, everything seems to be working well!
Lets transfer the output to our temporary text file
and have a look at out email account.
Clear up the output tab and it's time to define a
login procedure for 1888pressrelease.com
We won't be needing any output, so lets disable
output alltogether.
We need to click on the "Login details" button,
inorder to initiate the login definition procedure.
Now, we can add our login details to the
configuration and define the appropriate fields.
New login details can be added, adjusted or
delteted later on, through the login manager
that can be found at the "Config-Manager"
screen.
The submit button for the login procedure can be
defined in many ways. Javascript, a direct click
or a form submit is a possibility. However, we
will skip the submit button for now and define it
in a second using the "direct form submit"
method.
The "direct form submit" method can be initiated
by clicking on the "form submit" button. We will
also add a short "sleep" value, in other words a
short pause, to the execution of the script. This
is fairly unnecessary, we'll just be adding it to
give us some time in order to explore the whole
process.
That's it, we are done. Since we won't be
needing any output, we can skip the submit
process all together, skip the CAPTCHA and go
ahead and save our new configuration.
Ok, lets run it in debug mode and see how all of
it pans out...
The login was successful! Later, we can go
ahead and set-up a routine for automating some
PR submission tasks!
