If your talking to me prosaver it was just ordinary sports betting. NBA, tennis, football. Really it was whatever was live at the time. I never really watch sport that much now so that's probably good.

If you haven't already looked into it, I strongly recommend going to GA. Working the GA program one day at a time keeps me off a bet.

Downloaded and paid for Gamblock. It replaced the internet app think on my samsung and it installed a new skiny internet explorer thing. No password came up for installation. I've tested the internet and app downloads and it works - it wont process downloading or going onto a gambling website. I don't know why it didn't ask for a password? Unless I missed it, but I certainly didn't set one.

oh how bizarre. There was always a password before so other users of the pc can override if needed. did you have to pay for the trial then? K9 is free and i use that now my dad loaded it and set the password for me before i took my new laptop.
