A bot that connects to Battle.net using it's bnBinary protocol (0x01), instead of it's text-based Chat protocol (0x03).

In other words, a bot that uses the same protocol as Blizzard's Battle.net-enabled games.

It logs in as a game client instead of a chat client.

A "binary bot" is usually defined as a client which connects to a server using non-text-based data transfers and which data is usually is not standardly readable directly.

Arta gives the good example of Battle.net's binary protocol.
