Try keeping BS opened & not minimized/hidden - not sure if that function works? You should be able to surf the web & whatnot, at least. I think if it's minimized, it will have issues. The bot may also have issues with another game running - haven't tried as it would kill my framerate for sure.
Does it work for you with just a browser over top of it?
