not true, as it stands as long as you can use the web you can find out if a company is 'registered' so to speak.

all i am saying is make aff programs only acept companies, regardless of what their business liability is, by making a sole proprietor (sp?) become accountable for what they actually do, if anything ever had the need to go through the courts they would stand to lose a lot more than just a sponsors check

as for the database, im sure that it wouldnt be that hard to compile one the data must be floating around the web somewhere i would even bet that most payment processors hold this sort of information (kimmy could you confirm if this is the case?)

anyway was just a thought i had might not even be a plausable idea but it should be worth investigating surely especially if it took some of the unwarranted heat off us as an industry overall.
