IE and MSN games
Hi all, it's not just me, I know from other 'gamers' talkng about MSN's Texas hold 'em, I can only play it in IE  and every so often ( very often ) it will say IE has encountered a problemm and has to close  this is getting very very anoying now as I'm getting better at the game and progressing through the rounds, just when I get to the final 4 or 5 players of a table I get kicked.
So...................... is this a known problem, is there a fix, or is there a version playable in either Firefox or Opera, preferably Opera
TIA................. yours,
Fraustrated

Re: IE and MSN games

Re: IE and MSN games
Have you tried IE7 RC? I've had no problems with games or sites working with it.

OK, update, installed IE7 and tried the game again, I get this error when playing, then IE crashes and closes
Any ideas

How do you mean me and my 'pooter' ? I don't wanna play other games, I wanna play Texas Hold 'Em
I'll try something else just as an experiment
