Betonline down (again!)

wacked · 09-18-10, 10:25 AM

Well, it's up, but you can't log into the site. Once you do log-in and then try to go to the Sportsbook it doesn't remember your login and password. Sad, it works when nobody's on it, but when bettors hit it for an event, it breaks.

bill2266 · 09-18-10, 10:28 AM

it did that to me 3 days ago

ForgetWallStreet · 09-18-10, 10:33 AM

I am experiencing the same problems, but hey, as long as the check for the banner clears, right?

ForgetWallStreet · 09-18-10, 10:34 AM

SBR's apathy towards this issue is enraging.

bubba · 09-18-10, 11:02 AM

Working now(for now?)

What the hell do you expect SBR to do???

Betonline's own reaction is enraging. They somehow feel it is the customer's fault: IF I HEAR "CLEAR YOUR COOKIES...." One more time...

Peep,

That is nothing. Last week I asked a book why a bonus had not yet been credited to my account. They told me to clear my cookies and check again later.

bubba · 09-18-10, 12:19 PM

down again. lol- top notch book

Fiasco01 · 09-18-10, 12:36 PM

I'm having the same issue with 5Dimes.

Jrod124 · 09-18-10, 12:44 PM

I don't know, maybe use their influence to collect information on what's actually going on since BOL is clearly not interested in sharing this info with their customers.

this is an iesnare issue, 3rd party spyware, not really betonline's primary software thats causing the conflict

Well IeSnare is not Spyware, it's software that would run on a Sportsbook's servers to stop fraud. As far as if it's causing a conflict who knows, but the bottom line is their servers stop working when any hint of traffic hits them.

ForgetWallStreet · 09-18-10, 03:31 PM

And down again.

trixtrix · 09-18-10, 03:55 PM

lol @ iesnare not being spyware

bubba · 09-18-10, 04:35 PM

down again.

cant blame them, who would think there would be a lot of traffic on a saturday afternoon in the fall?

katstale · 09-18-10, 04:43 PM

Well, guys, according to managment, this is the new and improved software. They used to have a decent software package.

Climate · 09-18-10, 05:25 PM

I wanted to sign up but this is crazy. You gotta be able to get your bets in easily.

bubba · 09-18-10, 05:39 PM

still down

bigugly · 09-18-10, 09:06 PM

They claim it is down for some and up for others.

I don't understand how they can have their site operating like this on a football weekend.

mtneer1212 · 09-18-10, 09:11 PM

I'm officially divorced from BetOnline until they get new software.

Peeig · 09-18-10, 10:14 PM

When they are up and running, I do enjoy playing there.

IeSnare is spyware, once it is installed on your computer your computer will be tracked till it dies by IeSnare.

Likemyodds · 09-19-10, 12:09 AM

still down *sigh* gotta stay up till it gets running to pick dallas-7

Santo · 09-19-10, 01:24 AM

Curious whether the people the site is working for have iesnare blocked/disabled..

bigugly · 09-19-10, 02:15 AM

Got in and was able to make some wagers! Hopefully it's still working in the morning.

Peep · 09-19-10, 03:19 PM

It does work for me 75% of the time.

I did a search, I didn't find any "snare" or "iesnare" files in my computer.

I am on XP/IE7.

If you use sites that use IeSnare it's there trust me, more than likely it's in your flash file. Even if you delete the cookie it will install another one on your next visit to any site that uses it.

Here is a very good article about IeSnare.

IeSnare is software that basically identifies your computer and tracks it, if it is identified as a computer that is used for fraud or has in the past such as chargebacks, using stolen credit cards etc your computer will alert any site using IeSnare to possible fraud and in some cases deny access to that site.

It doesn't pose any danger to your computer but has serious privacy issues since you are never told your computer is now being tracked and what exactly they are doing with the info they gather.

bubba · 09-19-10, 04:39 PM

ty

down again!

Tomato · 09-19-10, 04:53 PM

Impossible to get a 2H bet down. Tried to log in for 10 minutes and couldn't get in until the game started.

bubba · 09-19-10, 05:00 PM

Actually it's basically just like any cookie you would get from any site you visit. Learn how to block iesnare cookies and LSOs just like you would anything else you didn't want on your system.

Content for this page has been excerpted from the article "iesnare - make sure you're not being snooped on" on The Gambling Times, please see the original article for more information. The main purpose of the system is to block criminal activity where fraudsters use multiple stolen identities / credit cards to sign up for multiple accounts on the same gaming sites. Whilst this sounds like a good thing and any lawful user shouldn’t have anything to worry about, what is worrying is the fact...
