Thanks for the reply.  I want to learn how to mine solo with my block erupters.  If anyone out there is willing to show me the steps to do it I will tip a couple of LTC.  Please PM me if you want to show me.  Thanks.

How many BE's do you have??
The difficulty on SHA coins, is through the roof, unless you have a retarded ammount of BE's, it would be much more profitable for you to mine in a pool...

It depends on the coin and the algorithm its in.  BE's are coded to only work with sha256.  Many of the alt coins are coded to run scrypt, so no you cannot use your BE's to mine them.

Hello:  Does anyone know how to mine solo with USB Block Erupters?  I tried to do it with GUIMiner but when it came time to select the hardware, it only let me select my GPUs or my CPU.  Does anyone have any clear instructions?  I know mining solo BTC and LTC is useless but this is for other altcoins that I am trying to for.  Thanks.
