Multi boxing program

I am RAFing my self (for the shiny new mount and a level 80 monk come MOP), but am getting frustrated tabbing back between the two screens

I've been dual boxing for the last month, and this is what I'm doing. I tried out several free options and I found HotkeyNet to be the easiest to use. I'm not exactly stupid with computers, and it's actually the only one I got to even work for me, who knows why. The site even gives you a script that is written specifically for playing two WOW accounts on one machine. All this program does is capture what keybind you use while one window of WOW is open and then sends it to the other window. You can probably imagine my glee when using it for the first time and I hit my Faerie Fire button on my druid and my priest automatically bubbled the druid. It was awesome.

I also suggest the WOW addon Jamba (it's on Curse), which does a whole TON of things involving quest and toon interaction in-game. I find it very handy, but no matter what, you'll still be tabbing back and forth for things like looting quest items

Yes, technically you can send mouse clicks, http://hotkeynet.com/wow/wow-mouse.html, but it requires your UIs for both windows to be identical, and according to that link, it has a possibility of maybe violating the ToS. I didn't want to suggest anything that might be a problem, especially because I have not used it in this way and it sounded iffy to me. I hadn't thought about using it for looting.

The botting thing comes from delays in mouse presses, which is automation, which is a problem. I saw nothing wrong with what I was doing (set it to no delay and it worked fine for me), and wasn't using it all that often- i only figured out the mouse presses towards the end of my free month of multiboxing
