Please do NOT download the latest Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 Beta 2.
Just as most other Betas, it's riddled with bugs.

By now GameColony has fixed several inconsistencies that appear only with the latest Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 Beta 2 browser.
(one of such fixed issues was with cribbage manual scoring)
We still don't believe that it's worthwile for players to be guniea pigs/testers for Microsoft's latest IE 7.0 Beta 2 browser -- it's infested with bugs:
Many IE 7.0 glitches are discussed here:

The good news:
(a) you can easily uninstall this browser via Control Panel / Add-Remove programs
(b) via a small free download, you can get a very stable standard browser FireFox (from Mozilla.org):
Download available at: www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/download.html
Do we really need to download this from mozilla?

Please don't download Mozilla if you don't have to !
The current stable Internet Explorer 6.0 with Microsoft Java ( as opposed to Sun Java per www.gamecolony.com/msjava.shtml ) provides the best graphics and stability.
If you already started downloading this 'awful' beta test version of Internet Explorer 7.0 (that Microsoft keeps peddling) -- only then either get rid of it or get Mozilla as a backup.

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
