Using 2 Browsers

[Stinkerbell]

I used to be able to pull up both IE and Mozilla or Firefox and work on badges that way using 2 Club Pogo accounts.  For some reason the past few times I have tried, I get kicked out of one of the names as soon as the other enters whatever room I'm trying to play in.  I've cleared my cache and all the good stuff.  Does anyone know why this happens, or how to rectify it?  >:((

You need two javas. MSJVM and Sun.

Here is the info we have posted in our Club center regarding db'ing.

The double browser trick requires two different browsers (no surprise there ;) ) and two different Java's; Sun and MS JVM. If you don't already have a browser in addition to Internet Explorer, there are many to choose from. Firefox is one of the many that will work.

If you don't already have two different Java's, you can get Sun at www.java.com, and you can download JVM here.

» How do I know which Java I have?

If you see a coffee cup icon appear when you play Pogo games, that means you have Sun Java. You can tell if you have MS JVM by going into Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced in Internet Explorer and looking for something that says "Microsoft VM". If you see it then it means that you have MS JVM. If not, then you do not and will need to install it as explained above.


Once you have two browsers and two Java's you now need two Pogo™ accounts. Just register an account like you normally would. Now just use one browser with one account and use the other browser with the other account and start a game. (A private password protected room is probably best.) Now just let one account win to your hearts content and that badge will be yours in no time!

Thank you!  I hadn't noticed that my java cup wasn't there anymore.  It used to come up all the time, but something must have happened and I didn't notice.  It works fine now!@

hmm I use IE and Firefox and only have Sun and it works great. 

I can't remember but I think there was a setting I had to screw with at first.

I also use IE and FF with Sun on both of them and it works for me.
