Simple, easy solution (unless the programmer of the bot is actually at
his computer when the ppw is received, then he can login to it straight away). No need to change PPW AFTER you're finished with the bot. I'm not sure but I think you can change PPW and the bot will stay logged in. I know that if someone else logs into your PPW, then you change PPW, they are still logged in on the old PPW until they logout, so this will probably work with bots too.
