    I'd suggest you try and chat with SBR to tshoot. http://livehelp.sbrpicks.com:8080/re...n&x=1&deptid=7

    That said, there is an issue with some AV programs think the SBR program is a virus. Search the forum and you should find the link for instructions on how to resolve the problem.

    Cheers and good luck.

    Better make sure you're taking your omega-3's or blood pressure medication before you begin playing SBR Poker

    is there an update or something that i am missing? it establishes connection until the last little bit then stops and i cant get any farther. Had someone I know come and look at my connection and computer to see if it was me and it doesnt seem to be. I dont know much about computers but if someone can help that would be great thanks

    Do you have any other computers to try on your connection? Go to a public wifi spot and try running it on your computer. At least that way you can pin it on either your computer or connection.
