Warning: I tried it with Firefox and it totally bogged me down. Also, I could no longer change tabs by clicking on them; I had to ctrl-tab to cycle through them. I finally just closed down Firefox and restarted.

It is java based software, and pretty much mimicks the way normal Party software looks (possibly at lower resolution). This includes the popup login window, and popup tables.

So does this make it even easier for people to run illegal software on? (If someone already posted about this, please ignore.)

I always thought if you run Java then the provider couldn't attach dll files to scan for illegal software thus you are correct.

Used this last night. Played 2 tables...it was a little slower but better than I expected. I enjoyed making a $6 bet with one blue $6 chip.
