You can run as many clients as your computer can handle.

Yes it's possible so long as they're both full accounts (i.e. you can't have a trial account and a non-trial account logged in on the same PC IIRC).
You can launch as many copies of the client as you want, same way you would launch just one.

As long as you are paying for both (one or both not being a trial) it is possible.
Just keep the launcher open and afer logging in your first account alt tab out and click play again after which a second instance of the game will open.
This is where i put my signature, wright? |

It is possible, but you need 2 actual accounts. You CAN'T run 2 characters on the same account at the same time. You either need to fund a 2nd subscription, or buy PLEX to sub the 2nd account in game..
Hope that helps

There have been no such policy changes I'm aware of. One of the GMs explicitly said the policy on ISBoxer had not changed. |

People go read the discussion on the dev blog from the security team. There has been changes to the policy regarding ISBoxer. GM Lelouch was the one who said it was ok, but 3 days ago, he edited the 3 year old post to change the policy, basically saying that they can't say if it's ok or not.... use at your own risk as they are not sure it's not breaking the EULA.

Having multiple accounts logged in isn't a problem. Controlling accounts separately or through ISBOxer is fine, while automating it through botting will get you banned. |

I'd call you lazy, but it took longer to post this than it would have taken to type "multiple clients" or "multi box" into the search field.

Respect. 
EVE is a low resource type program so you should be able to run at least 2 clients without trouble.
I am just happy to see them get rid of three strikes and move to a first time 30 day ban second time PERMANENT ban!! YES YES YES!!!!!
ANY RMT including first time is a permanent ban as is any modification to the client. These are ALL positive steps to stop people from violating the rules and ruining EVE for everyone.

I regularly log in three or four clients at a time, depending on what I am doing. If you see any performance degredation, lower the graphics options on your secondary account(s).

They had to revise their statement, because ISBOXER does break the EULA.
"You may not use your own or any third-party software, macros or other stored rapid keystrokes or other patterns of play that facilitate acquisition of items, currency, objects, character attributes, rank or status at an accelerated rate when compared with ordinary Game play."
Since ISBoxer does provide a single player, with advantages over another single player not using it, it's against the EULA.
I'm sure they'll revise the EULA though, they can't afford to lose all those ALTs.....
The single biggest danger to EVE is the proliferation of ALTS! Kill an alt today!

I have been using ISBoxer for the last several month and will continue to use ISBoxer until CCP says no to.
At this point ISBoxer is within the rules as CCP has stated their policy towards ISBoxer has not changed.
Just my two cents on the matter. |

Just incase no one mentioned it yet:
Of course you can do this, but be really really really careful how you do this.
Seems people are getting banned for the use of things like ISBoxer. Personally. I've no plans to ever use ISBoxer (My two accounts are specialized on totally different things, so that would be a terrible idea from the get go).
Having said that, I've already deactivated my alt mostly out of lack of desire to be hit by the next wave of changes because I see not much hope if any account is banned, in getting it unbanned.
Conclusion of this ramble, fly safe and if you're unsure if what you want to do with that 2nd account is legal, don't do it because what is acceptable today, might be outlawed tomorrow and you wont know about the change until a week into your ban :O
p.s. no, my alt has not been banned. Just tired of having to play 20 other games as some friends can't play eve anymore.

Do you have a source? I have not heard a single case of someone being banned for simply using ISBoxer.

"PC" covers a hell of a lot of hardware / software / configurations.
My personal best about 2y ago on XP was 9 with max graphics. As a guesstimate on my hardware today 15 - 20.
