you don't have to mine "together", actually there isn't even such a thing as mining "together", when you join a group, you each mine separately, one of you "wins" a 50BTC block then that block gets shared among all the group participants...

I don't believe there are any very big bot nets out there. If so they do not have anywhere near a majority of the hashing power. I could have a 60 gh/s machine running and probalby woulnd't hit a block for a long time.
