AST, I'll repeat again... this thread has nothing to do with my buying-traffic.com affiliate account. For all intents and purposes we can consider that closed; I haven't sent any traffic to that for a couple of weeks.

The URLs with "?AST" appended that I have pasted into this thread were generated solely from loading http://xxstory.sexushost.com/xxxfree/wuxia/s0938.htm through a standard Windows browser. I simply used my local proxy logs (on my LAN - nothing to do with your site, or any traffic brokering) to see the exact URLs that were 302'd inside the invisible i-f-r-a-m-e.

Here's an example.

http://www.sexushost.com/cgi-bin/404
redirects to
http://adult-site-traffic.com/traffic/out.cgi?c=37
which redirects to
http://chubby.com/defaultD.php?id=80...&url=nopop&AST

If you load http://www.sexushost.com/cgi-bin/404 a few times then you'll be directed to various URLs, presumably all paying buyers... nothing unusual there. However, remember that the 404 handler is loaded within an invisible i-f-r-a-m-e, so the surfer never sees the final content... unless the HTML contains frame breaking code.

I wasn't trying to throw any blame at you in particular, since it's obvious that regardless of whether xratedhits is an affiliate or wholesale seller, he is stiffing you. I only posted those URLs to prove that this traffic *is* associated with AST. It's unfortunate that his garbage has filtered out to paying buyers...
