Warning message from Party, result of PokerAce/PT?
I just got a warning message from PartyPoker saying that they detected software running on my system that could give me an unfair advantage. The only programs that I had open were IE, Outlook, PA, and PT. I was on the PokerProphecy website checking out their trial feature, but it's not a program you download, just a database you access via an HTML form.
Has anyone else gotten this warning message when running PA/PT? Thanks, Will |

Because like I said, I hadn't downloaded any software, and I'd be surprised if being on a website while on PartyPoker would be cause for a warning message. It wasn't scanning my PP software. I manually typed some stuff in and it accessed its database. Will |

Everybody who has gotten these messages and tried to blame pokerace hud / pokertracker has admitted to using the PP website.

Re: Warning message from Party, result of PokerAce/PT?
Alright, I'm not trying to blame PA/PT. I love both of these programs, and I would hate to have to stop using them. Like I said, I was just on the PokerProphecy website, and I won't be using their services, as I really don't want to have my PP account close. I'm very glad that it's not PA/PT.
Thanks for the help, Will |

It seems that Party are sniffing everyones cookies for visits to the PokerProphecy web site. This is very easy for them to do. If they detect the cookie, you get an e-mail...it's just that simple.

without a doubt partypoker sniffs for certain cookies
if you are willing to reformat your hard drive (or get a new one) you can organize and configure your computer with security/login options that will not allow programs to sniff around outside their assigned area this is not trivial but neither is it difficult. on a side note it also stops people from remotely scanning your computer to read your hole cards [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] |
