Got an email from BetUS about this and have been meaning to post:
"As part of the ongoing preparations to enter the French market, BetUS.com will cease accepting new players from French IPs starting from December 15th, 2010. French players who attempt to open an account on the site, will be redirected to a new page explaining the French regulations. Our valued affiliates are highly important to us, so once the new and improved French BetUS.com platform is ready we will update you with the full details. "
