I doubt you'll find those responses

I also believe it's only there to encourage compulsive gamblers to play more. Every single casino I've played at (which is alot) installs a button on the IE toolbar ONLY after you've agreed to it during the install; and if you delete it after that, you won't see it again. I think it's outrageous for the button to be reinstalled everytime you start the casino.

Just heard rumors that with the next intercasino upgrade the button has to be pushed every 108 minutes.

I'd push an Intercasino button every 108 minutes if I was stranded on an island with Evangeline Lilly

Seriously, though. If you right-click on the icon in the IE browser and click 'customize' you can get rid of it in a matter of seconds.

Yes, but that's not the point here...it shouldn't be installed if the user doesn't want it, plain and simple

*bump*

Please provide us with instructions on how to *deactivate* the automatic reinstallation of unwanted Intercasino icons and IE/Firefox add-ons, Mr. Hartley.

The ratio has to be 100 against to .01 for the buttons.......
That old chestnut about companies receiving loads "positive feedback". Do they really think we are all that stupid and gullible.

And we are forever getting told that our PCs are under attack from every angle and we need to install antivirus, firewalls, antispyware, antiphishing, site advisers etc etc, so it is very irresponsible for one of the biggest online casinos to install software without being upfront about it and gaining the users explicit consent, however innocent that software may or may not be.

Dear members,

I have spoken with our software team and we will certainly look into rectifying this for the next sounds of games. Once again, apologies for the inconveneince this has caused you guys, but we do receive positive feedback from our players. I cannot post these as they were sent as private emails to me and therefore I hope you will take these on good faith.

In terms of removing the icon from IE, please do the following:

1) Right click the icon and click on "customize" at the bottom of the menu.
2) You with then be presented with a pop up window where on the right hand column you will see the InterCasino icon
3) Click this InterCasino icon and then click on the "Remove" tab that is in the middle, below the "Add" tab - this will remove the icon from the IE menu at the top
4) Click ok and this should get rid of the icon completely.

I hope this helps you.

Regards
Ryan

Playing devils advocate here....

Now how about instructions for removing the button from Firefox?

And also,

Why not release an update immediately for this? For those that *don't* want it, they have to go and remove the button *each and every time* they run the casino...not like it's a one-time fix.

When are the games going to be fixed in the play mode? I love the new ones, but I get to spin about 5 times and get booted out on every one of them that have some kind of Rapid Fire pay on the screen including the super hero ones..

Truly frustrating (and I know, I know, I can ONLY play it in fun mode) but I am practicing until , knowing we will be let back in soon!
