LOIC SETUP GUIDE
HIVEMIND mode will connect your client to an IRC server so it can be controlled
remotely. Think of it like a voluntary botnet. They might even make your client
do naughty things, so beware.
Note: It does NOT allow remote administration of your machine, or anything
like that, it is just control of LOIC itself.
Windows
- Download MS .NET Framework 3.5 and install it.
- Download Hivemind LOIC and unzip it to your desktop.
- Start LOIC with the LOIC.EXE
- Server: loic.AnonOps.net
- Channel: #loic
- Select "hivemind mode"
- Sit back and watch the show
MAC/Linux
JavaLOIC for MAC (no hivemind feature): Download
- Launch JavaLOIC
- Enter Target URL or IP and click LOCK ON
- join #setup on IRC for target info and settings (TCP and rest on defualt is usually best)
With HiveMind feature (Mono or Wine):
Install script for Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora: View
Run the script from terminal.
Settings:
- Server: loic.AnonOps.net
- Channel: #loic
- Select "hivemind mode"
- Sit back and watch the show
Go through the above steps 2-3 times if you can't get it working.
If you still can't fix it; Join #Setup for Win/Nix or #nubbintank for MACs, and ask.

FAQ
- Is LOIC infected with a virus? NO, your AV gives a false positive. Disable your AV. The source code is included in the download to prove this.
- Will I get caught/arrested for using it? Chances are next to zero. Just blame you have a virus, or simply deny any knowledge of it.
- Can I use a PROXY? NO, you will just attack the proxy. But a VPN is OK.
- LOIC cant connect; Turn off MSE or your Firewall. Still no go; On IRC, type /map and choose a different server.
- Requests stuck? Target is down, KEEP FIRING TO KEEP IT DOWN
- Who/What is the target; Set LOIC on HIVEMIND mode or join #setup on IRC and ask.
- What settings should I use? Join the HIVEMIND or leave it at default w/ TCP. Protip: Dont go over 100 threads.
- What is (D)DOS?
- What is a botnet?
- How do I get a botnet? No.
