    I just visited the sharkscope website and got a pop-up window saying that pokerstars has decided not to let players use Sharkscope while logged in on Stars. Anyone got the exact message? This is not cool.

    it depends if you use firefox or ie. if you use firefox you can use them both at the same time but not if you are using ie.

    I miss Lee Jones. He always said stars would not make up any rule they could not enforce. Clearly there are ways to look at sharkscope while you play on pokerstars without doing it on the same computer.

    Stars and sharkscope have a business dispute. Stars eventually made a correct decision to leave their customers out of it.

    What about the sharkscope HUD, anyone still uses this, and would you get in trouble if used??
