This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in |

the OpenSSL Toolkit (http://www.openssl.org/). This product includes |

cryptographic software written by Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com). |

|
Intro |
|
----- |
|
Bitcoin is a free open source peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is |
|
completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted |
|
parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly |
|
with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending. |
|
|
|
|
|
Setup |
|
----- |
|
Unpack the files into a directory and run bitcoin-qt.exe. |
|
|
|
If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, you need to add bitcoin.exe to its |
|
"Excluded processes" list. Microsoft Security Essentials->Settings tab, |
|
select Excluded processes, press Add, select bitcoin.exe, OK, Save changes. |
|
|
|
The software automatically finds other nodes to connect to. You can |
|
enable Universal Plug and Play using a menu entry or set your firewall |
|
to forward port 8333 (TCP) to your computer so you can receive |
|
incoming connections. Bitcoin works without incoming connections, |
|
but allowing incoming connections helps the Bitcoin network. |
