For some people, gambling is an enjoyable entertainment indulged in during leisure hours: for others, it is a vicious, compulsive addiction.

Gamblers might be in a position to control their involvement in playing poker or roulette or Black Jack and go to a casino or a private game once or twice in a month, enjoying a social evening with friends who have the same interests. However, the same person might become hopelessly addicted when problem gambling online.

An internet gambling addiction is often a more intense gambling experience than in a ‘real’ casino or game room. Online graphics are both seductive and tailored to appeal to potential addicts and the stakes are carefully tagged to lure the player into placing a higher bet. You might argue that this is the case in any casino and that would be true but an online gambler can switch from one site to another in seconds and lose enormous amounts in a shorter space of time.Furthermore, the online gambler is usually alone and not gambling for the social experience. This can make Internet gambling even more addictive than casinos or poker games with friends.

The internet can provide a level of secrecy that is unavailable in a live situation, with a minimum risk of detection. Someone who suffers with problem gambling might be seriously in debt before anyone realises there is an addiction. By the time friends and family get around to putting in place the software that will effectively block gaming, the player is deeply into the kind of debt that takes years to pay back and recover from. In the meantime, the family finances are destroyed and affectionate relationships that once existed are put at risk because blocking software was not installed soon enough.

An internet gambling addiction might be prevented if the correct software is installed on your home computer. Blocking software is controlled via password just like the kind of system that is used to prevent children from accessing unsuitable sites and may be part of the same blocking package. The software will completely eliminate gambling sites and prevent a possible addiction occurring, not only with the adults in the family but also the children.

Anyone might become a victim of internet gambling addiction. Any age is susceptible so small children right up to elderly grandparents might be tempted to dabble with hard earned savings in an online casino. Rather than gamble with your family’s online health, install a software program to block gaming and render your home computer safe from intrusive gambling sites and internet gambling addiction.
