Most poker sites do use some sort of detection software. For a while, Party was actually grabbing a screen shot of your computer, and that would show if you were running any of these "helpers". A lot of people, even those innocent, left Party because of what they considered to be a violation of privacy. I mean, think of some of the things people do while playing - pay bills, check bank accounts, etc - they didn't want some random programmer having their info. Party apparently quit that method of detection, but still uses others, along with most sites.
