Anybody have an opinion on the usefulness or thoroughness the live table stats of PokerOffice as compared to PlayerView? Do any old-timers here use this program? Most of the posts I’ve seen are from very new people.

Before you jump on me for not just trying it myself, I’ll explain a bit ...

I’ve been using PT for quite a while. They have a track record. PT never accesses the internet except to download hand histories, and then it accesses only my own email server, not any other site.

I started downloading PO today to have a look. While the download was going on I read their site and some of the posts here about it. It appears to me that the software accesses the internet every time it is started up ... paranoia strikes and I cancel the download.

So, the additional question(s). Does anybody know what PO is doing on the net? Does it maintain the connection throughout play or does it seem to just check for a legit registration code on start-up?

Have any PO users ever had trouble with someone else accessing / emptying their poker accounts? Like I said ... paranoia strikes. There could very well be legitimate reasons for the program to have internet access.
