It's relatively tricky to stop the program loading at machine startup everytime (had to do a registry edit to prevent this).

Also, the access password is stored in plaintext in the system registry.

Dougie.

This is exactly the type of application I was referring to in a previous thread regarding reading hole cards etc.

You don't honestly think we have gone to all this hassle just to be able to read hole cards ?

I'm honestly not dissing your software / offer or anything, just unhappy I didn't find any option to stop load at startup without asking.

If your read the post I refer to, reading hole cards is easy, the hard bit is getting your code on a user's pc. Also, storing password's plain text is bad.

downloaded ok, but everytime i try and watch any video ,runs 3 secs and freezes like this all the time, i expected a bit more from the tools to be honest ,

What internet line do you have?
The video's should run pretty smooth...we have stress tested the files simulating up to 5000 users watching the same video at the same time and that worked.

Tools will improve alot (!) for next version...

ihave AOL also have a firewall, any advice please

PokerManager use port 80, please open this in your firewall.

This didn''t happen to me, when I installed it I had an option to click/unclick "load at start-up" - (maybe my pc has this feature in it rather than the poker software though???)

Have downloaded and using site very impressive so far.

A central banking system would be a good idea methinks.  It would be handy if we could buy into a tournament via the software rather than registering for each site when we want to play a particular tourney.

You'd give your bank details to them, and let them look after your money?  Not saying they wouldn't be anything but legitimate, but  you wouldn't know the first thing about their security.  It would also mean all the poker rooms giving them access to their secure transactional applications.  Not going to happen.

How much do you know about most poker room's security?

I don't.  But I don't want to add another link into the chain.  If a poker room does something with my money, I will speak to them about it.  I don't play for huge sums, and I'm sure they'd sort out any problems fairly rapidly.  If a third-party get involved, who is responsible if some money gets 'lost'?

It will happen, but it's VERY difficult to do. Probably will happen within 6-9 months

PokerManager use port 80, please open this in your firewall.

Whatever you do DO NOT "OPEN" port 80!!!
You can configure your firewall to allow this app to use port 80 but make sure it is not open to all, most of the old trojans/worms attack this port because it is the HTTP port.
I manually configured my firewall (ghostwall) with the ports i posted on page 2, this allowed it to work .

You'll soon break everyone's browsing with this kind of generic statement.

Port 80 is used for OUTBOUND connections (quite legitimately) for browsing.

Port 80 - INBOUND is if your hosting your own web server. This would be the default port.

Without getting into any arguments, I would not allow any application on my PC waiting to serve incoming requests on port 80.

Incoming requests for ANY APP trying to act as a server on your PC is bad news. You must trust the application 100%, otherwise they OWN your computer (or technically have the equivelant privleges as the user account you are running under - usually admin rights on XP home).

Only when you have a 100% fresh air firewall from the internet
