Bot Exploit

I am trying to bypass battlenet, but the only way i can find online is creating a shortcut.
this does not seem to work with the client.
Is their any way i can bypass it and make it work?
im running windows 8
any help would be appreciated.

Why do you want to bypass battlenet?
Make sure you select Diablo III.exe instead of Diablo III Launcher.exe

Their is both options their, To select either diablo III Or Diablo III Launcher.
Either runs the battlenet client when i choose them, And the client doenst start.
I set the diablo path to: Diablo III
click start and comes up: Not Started
as well as displaying: object reference not set to an instance of a object.
