Update: Bug Workaround for Infinite Mario Game Research


Guenter has come back regarding a reported bug in Infinite Mario regarding their game research experiment at: http://bit.ly/Y4UBUk.

=======================

This is a weird problem. It seems to occur with Windows 7 with Java SE7. I
don't know where the problem really is but I have two workarounds.

a) Starting Firefox in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility mode (right
click on Firefox Icon -> Properties -> Compatibility-> Check the "Run this
program in compatibility mode for" box) fixes the problem

b) Changing the color depth of Windows 7 from 32bit to 16bit also
circumvents the problem.

I will also put a notice on our website.
