Microsoft Causing Problems at Carbon

March 12, 2009 | by Carolina Gambler | posted in Poker News

It seems some folk have been having problems logging into the software at Carbon Poker. This can be very frustrating for online poker players when this happens, but it’s not always the fault of the gaming network that the skin is with.

According to the tech team at Merge Gaming,”It appears Microsoft released a “Defender” patch that blew away critical lines in people’s hosts file. This meant that people could no longer connect to local host meaning the flash movies could not connect to the poker client. This in turn means those people affected would not be able to log into the software. Microsoft released a new patch shortly after but it did NOT fix the hosts file problem. This means anyone who upgraded their defender after the first patch but before the 2nd patch would be affected.”

The fix for the problem is really very simple. Just completely uninstall the poker software from your computer, and then re-download and install the poker site. That should fix you right up and you’ll be good to go !
