Default Virus in Rake Calculator

If anyone is using the rakeback calculator from Checkraised.com, stop immediately. The program is actually a trojan, and will steal all of your log-in info for the online sites you play at.

Thanks for the Heads-up Tex. I've never used any online software to help my game (and it needs it big time).

I can't say I'm surprised that someone came up with that. I'm glad I've never used software to supplement my game.

Thanks for the information, Texas!

I read about this virus elsewhere, but appreciate you posting information about it here for any of our members who were unaware of this.

I guess you have to be cautious about everything anymore, including what software you download.

thx for information m8.. when started playing i download some software .. (i think the program is called poker indicator) - giving you the odds, and calculating the pot odds.. i tried it to use it on play money - and it is a really nice software, just to try it.. (for real money you need to buy-it) .. and it is a really good software.. but i just wanted to try it, i don't like anything to bother me when i'm playing at one table (i can't play two tables at same time, losing concetration), so i unistalled it..

after your post, i'm really courious.. if some program you installed is remembering your nicknames and pws, can somebody else withdraw your money from your account on poker rooms?!
