Re: So i get this email from partypoker......
Depends on your browser. Firefox - Tools->Options->Privacy, IE - Tool->Internet Options->General, Opera Tools->Advanced->Cookies (Delete Private Data will do it, but delete other stuff too)

Re: So i get this email from partypoker......
I have looked at the sample search recently and I don't have any cookies from their site. Are you sure they set a cookie?
They could check your history I suppose. I guess I'll delete that stuff myself. To the OP: They take screen shots too. I don't know if they only do this when Party is running or not though. Were you running Party when you checked Prophecy? |

Apparently Firefox is exempt from this for some reason, only IE is affected. Something like that.

fwiw, a buddy never uses prophecy and kicked down his password. occassionally, i'll check it out for fun while i'm playing, while running party, and have never received any emails of this sort. I stay far, far away from IE too.

Just don't use Poker Prophecy...simple. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks man. I will admit everyonce in awhile I will use the prophecy website. I usually go to the google bar and type in the web address and go from there. I didnt want to have it in my history for this above reason. For some reason I could get a sample table search about once a week for free. I don't put any serious thought into it, but it was a just another tidbit of information that I could check up on some opponents who I run into on many occasions while I multi-table the 100's. But, anyhow I will stop using this free web based site. It really will not effect me at all, my only concern is Partypoker being "suspicious". That is very bad thing for me. I deleted all cookies and history. I also emailed party back and told them everything I told you. They gave me a warning. So, I guess everything is cool. PS- I've heard Firefox is better than IE from a few people. Not just for the reason of this issue, but overall. I think I will download it and use it as my main browser. Thanks to all who responded to this thread. |
