"Pay us for the traffic you should have already gotten, or we will sell it to your competitors! We will pop consoles over every page and every click of your sites and distract the surfers until they don't even know you exist, so you better come to us and buy your domain back... and oh yeah, can we interest you in sitcking it to your competitors too? We can sell you THEIR keywords too!".

That, in a nutshell, is their entire business model.

All the free games, tools, and whatever is all to get their software installed, and once it is installed, it is apparently VERY hard to get rid of (and will re-install itself or otherwise rename itself to avoid being removed entirely).

Companies shouldn't be so dumb as to do business with these people. Sexsearch will never get any of my traffic in any way shape or form no matter what happens in the future. They are non-grata as far as I am concerned.
