If you are lucky to find a eggable shell for free, then it mostley cant connect to any irc-servers .. and the best help you can get is included in the eggdropx.x.x.tar.gz .. "the docs"

I was also searching for one for a long time, with no avail. If you can't afford a shell, look around, maybe one of your friends can let you use his account.

As for Eggdrop installation guide, egghelp.org is a great source.

Yes, you have eggdrop "for unix/linux" Dancer "unix/linux" windrop "for windows" and mirc bot "for windows", so all u need is a friend with a computer hooked up to the net 24/7.. then you should be able to have a bot..

Even if you have no friends willing to let their boxes become potential DoS targets, shells needn't be expensive...

There are shell providers offering deals for $6-10 a month (or less!) now including multiple background processes (bots), able to access major IRC networks like IRCnet and DALnet.

My shell provider offers excellent uptime and amazingly good customer support on a 100Mbit connection, 3 processes for a mere $10 a month.

Try the Egghelp shell provider list which is searchable by various criteria. Check out some of the shell review websites too.

Some shell providers have "how to" information, if not, Egghelp again!
