problem with creating a new account on pstars


Recommended Posts

4 people used to use this computer before I moved back on campus taking it with me. Someone in that time period had created an account on PokerStars, and apparently, I can't create a new one because of it, even if I uninstall and reinstall. So my question is, how does it know an account was created on it? I'm not too computer suave, but I'm guessing it has something to do with the registry. Anyone know how can fix this so I can create a new account? PS - I've contacted Poker Stars about creating an account through e-mail, but they won't budge.

So I -finally- convinced them to allow me to create another account. Apparently, they "granted me access to create a new account". How exactly do they trace something like that? I doubt it's by my IP address, because it isn't static(I use 56k, so it changes every time I recconect).Anyways, I understand that I can create an account on another computer, but that wasn't the question. I wanted to know how it was possible to create another account on a computer with a pre-existing account already on it. Still, does anyone know?Thanks.

you can create more names on your computer if you have windows Xp. you have to create a new user name to log on your computer with. when you do that it allows you to create a new name. it is your IP address that they track i beleive and is how they know its your computer. if you try to play in the same tourney on 2 computers from the same location it wont allow you. at least that s what i have been told!!
