Is there any chance to get iGPM ported from Java and Flash maybe to HTML5?
Java and Flash always have serious vulnerabilitys since they are there!
For actuall Java see here:

After all those issues the devs are not able to fix, my trust in their capabilities to prevent bad boys from intruding to iGPM is not very high!

I am not aware of any issues which the team have said they cannot fix. Which issues are you referring to?

Unsure if I should open another thread, so sorry for posting here. Don't know if this is happening to you guys as well, but if I open live timing only, my computer clock start working at mega speed, I mean I look at computer clock and it shows like 5 minutes have passed since I opened the java page, when in fact only 3 passed and so on. Problem isn't there on 2D or even on live timing if I open another 2D session along with live timing. Weird...

We have been aiming at switching to new technologies for a while, HTML5 is one option we have been looking into. Another big benefit of doing so is getting the game on mobile platforms.

How about the speeding clock, Andrew ?
Andrew Wiseman medal 5000 11 years 302 days ago
I have no idea what might be causing that. It's unlikely to be related to the applets because they operate inside a strict sandbox that restricts their ability to make system changes such as altering the system clock. I'm very interested to hear if anyone else has noticed similar behaviour though.
Alin, do you have virus scanning software installed? Could you check if this happens when you are on the Mobile timings page and/or in any other senario at all?
Thanks.

Wow, thank you so much for solving my computer clock problem. I honestly had no idea that is what was causing my computer to run so fast. I am constantly setting it back. There are some times it's ahead 5-10 minutes. I have a few accounts and use the timing and scoring a lot throughout the day.

I don't have anti-virus installed, Andrew. I checked with IE and Firefox. Firefox works fine on all three viewers. IE has the galloping time issue only on Timing + Live Control. On Mobile and 2D it works fine. Or at least that's what I noticed from short observation. Have no idea why only on IE and only on Timing + Live Control.

Unix player by any chance?

What boggles me is that the Live Timing doesn't seem to support the latest version of Java: when I open the Live Timing, it prompts me to install the latest version of Java, which I already have. If I click cancel, the live control + chat don't appear. It works on Java 10 (with the known dangerous vulnerability), but not Java 11.
EDIT: *Java 7 Update 10/11

Yes same here Live controls and 2d doesn't work with newest Java update. But I'm not going back to the old one as it has serious vulnerabilities.
