    After experiencing the fluttering meter associated with an automatic Adobe upgrade, I remedied the problem by downloading the very latest Adobe Plugin (11.4.402.265) and disabled all  the older ones. I also blocked further Adobe updates unless I gave permission to make changes to my Chrome program. or my computer.

    tonight, I began experiencing the fluttering meter again......??????

    I immediately went into the Chrome://plugins/ section only to discover that the newest Adobe upgrade 11.4.402.265  had been disabled and replaced with an older version..!!

    Despite my having   intentionally blocking Adobe updates/changes to my computer, the changes were made.

     

    Another very disturbing circumstance: While playing the back nine at Congressional, I noticed my Black Max ball acting unnaturally. I lost much of my ball control. Putts were especially out-of-sync. I'd play a shot with normal speed/distance only to watch it rush past the cup by twice the distance I'd attempted.

    I struggled with this for a few holes, lost a ball in the water hazard because I was unable to control certain aspects of my shots.

    On the 18th hole, the screen/program 'Froze'. I waited, clicked on full screen them small screen, ....nothing. I went to logout and got a message "We're sorry. but there has been an unintentional error in the program. Please try again later"   Gr-r-r-r-r

    After logging out, I noticed an e-mail from WGT awarding me a 'Bonus'.....???

    I had rec'd a free 'Speed Ball Boost".   What do I need to do to get rid of this 'Bonus'...? To erase it from my system and get back to normal play...? Again, changes were made to my system with out my permission...???????

    One more item: Back when we were experiencing the Adobe fluttering meter problem, I was deprived of my 220 consecutive 'Days Played' record.   On several occasions, I've requested that the 'String' be reinstated.  .... I've never had  the courtesy of a reply to any of my requests......???    That reflects poorly on those administering this program...!!

    Hello again Icon...      April 11, 2013  9:15 p.m. edt

    have you made recent changes to putting...? Stats being recorded were VERY inaccurate; On the 8th hole of that round, I'd successfully sunk a 46 ft putt. Subsequently, reviewing the game 'Stats' it told me that me longest putt was 6.6 ft....??????

    Somehow, today I rec'd a new version of Flash Player   # 11.7.700.179

    Started two skins games, unable to complete even the 1st hole. 

    When typing comments in the chat lines, the spacebar on my laptop was completely unresponsive. One of the other players in our group was experiencing the same difficulty.

    May I please hear from you..??

    Thank you,

    You have to watch outfits like Adobe and Google. You may disable automatic updates, but then when you make a manual update they may unilaterally reenable automatic updates.
