Any suggestions about whats happening. I lost another 10min game today when the window popped up and said I abandoned the game and lost. This has happened quite a few times now and each time its when I'm in a strong position against my opponent. Is this some type of trickery or malware or ? I'm buy no means a strong player but love playing and am usually above 625. These frequent losses are keeping me down probably 50points
