And it's safe to use a hack or program to auto-refresh your windows? Clearly states in the TOS that they can take legal action if fraud is detected.

well, you click on the link in your profile and it opens up a new window with an adframe with pages that keep refreshing. no clicking on ads or anything, it just puts the new window on top of everything when it refreshes.
So you pretty much can't use the computer while it runs.

If you have two monitors, what about putting the ad browser on the secondary?

And they don't do ANY checks at all to prove that you're actually AT the computer while it runs?

i just figured out if you leave the window up but click on something else that it won't pop up to the front, so don't minimize it. I dunno, if they do find out oh well.

tabbed browsing is your friend.

i use FF and it still does it to me

Get the plugin to pop up tabs in the background. That should do the trick, no?

EDIT: Good call on the second monitor. Now I just need a place to put one😛

how about we start posting our account names on here so we could all benefit from each other?

I mean someone could post their account name and then go from there.
 
on the payment screen do you have to actually put in your checking account code to get the $$$?

edit: if anyone new wants to sign up PM me, i'll send you my referrer code 🙂

I wouldn't mind that, but I know the mods frown upon referral links.
 
You don't even need two monitors, just place it WAY off to the side of the screen, barely visible, but leave it up. Would that not work, too? Then you don't even have to see it.

But it really seems like you can only have ONE going at a time. Can't have more than one account, and since you log in, can't have the same account running on two or more comps at once.

And of course if it's idle for a long time, like overnight, they're going to know, they're not dumb. You'll need some kind of program to generate mouse movements, and since it says they can take LEGAL action, not just ending your service, I wouldn't do it.
 
Activity Points: 1
Payment rate: $0.45 per hour
Hours spent surfing: 0.33

Your earnings: $0.01

WTF? My earnings decreased? Maybe I'll only leave one open?

Did you not read when I said that I had multiple open and my payments decreased?

You can only have one open at a time.

You could just say you forgot to close the window.

Good point, this discussion should be moved to another forum.
 
i don't see how they could track you. but what if they wait a few weeks and see that you have left the window open 24/7? forgetting to close the window for two weeks wouldnt be a very believable story

They won't call fraud on you for leaving it open for weeks, but I'm saying they DEFINITELY have some kind of way to tell if you're there or not. So I bet leaving it run while you're gone won't work. And then using a program to fake mouse movements is where it gets risky.

The main B.S. forum whatever it's called then post it here so NutBucket can update his OP.

spyware or what ? What's the catch ? Like someone said, it didn't work in the past (for revenue generation), why would it work now ?
If it's not spyware, it's a general marketing scam like the Free<insert stuff here> setups; they're giving you money, but they're also selling every last drop of personal information they have from you to pay for it.

I started a post. I'll maintain a conga-type list if that's what y'alls want.
