I've gotten in touch with Neteller's investigation team. This has nothing to do with the legislation. It's pure coincidence that it happened now. I'm not going to get into details, but it's really a problem with one of the people who had transferred me money. I'm hoping to have the issue completely resolved in another day or two.

I will say though, that Neteller has been pretty unresponsive, only getting in touch with me when I call and bug them. That's something I'm not very happy about at all.

Neteller has re-opened my account and everything is back to normal. I'm disappointed that I had to bug them about it every day to get them to do something, but it did get done.

PA: you might want to use a disclaimer to the effect of: "It is the responsibility of the buyer to ensure that PokerAceHUD is used in compliance with all applicable laws." putting such in the setup file with an "I Accept" checkbox before the program can be installed (or possibly the first time it's run).

I have added the following to the website:

[ QUOTE ]

Notice for United States residents
PokerAce Hud is made available for entertainment purposes only in the United States.

I will likely consult a lawyer in the near future to determine how to best protect myself and my business.

Have you read the bill Ace? S5365(c): I think you'll need to move to overseas hosting or they might be able to take links to poker rooms down.

Any actual criminal risk? An aiding and abetting prosecution seems unlikely, and if they try to go after people like that you won't likely be the first (you'd likely have some warning).

CMA: I'm not a lawyer.

Actually, I removed all the links to the poker sites that I had on my website.
