Thanks Kellie for explaining the 170 ID's. I remember posting something about this on the Regnow forum a few years ago when I had found MetricsDirect as one of their top affiliates. Shit had hit the fan on their board and they had threatened to ban me. I reposted this from memory today.

And last time I checked Affiliate Marketing is still performance based, so that true physical click is key in a performance based model.

That's right and all TOS say that a sale is payable to you if it originates from a click on one of your links. The wording is different in most programs, but that's what they all say. In cases of the cookie being overwritten without a physical click from the surfer and replaced by the cookie of affiliates who use adware, this becomes a legal issue because the sale came from a physical click YOUR link.
That's my opinion anyway.
