Is selling popunders to plugrush safe again? - GoFuckYourself.com

signupdamnit · 11-30-2012, 10:59 AM

Starting about a month ago I had a lot of hassle with my visitors getting various types of malware from the popunders plugrush was serving. I saw some talk of it also happening to others here. I had to remove the popunders on a few sites over it.

My question is are things safe at Plugrush again? For plugrush, has anything been done to help prevent this from happening again since that time? I hope so. Plugrush is my favorite network to sell popunders to but I absolutely can't have my sites being responsible for distributing malware.

Yeah. we have done a lot to prevent it from happening, and to catch malicious campaigns a lot faster.

We have banned and disabled a bunch of users and campaigns. We have created an advanced crawler which constantly checks and analyses campaigns, detects redirects and checks and auto disables them if sites are marked as malware in google and other virus services. It crawls and detects malware from more than 70 locations around the world, to also detect those who geo target their malware infection.
As soon as google safebrowsing marks a domain or url as malware, we detect it shortly after and auto disable it.

That being said, it's never possible to be 100% clean. There will always be ways to cheat the system, and people try all kinds of shit. But there are far fewer campaigns being approved now than there used to be, due to the fact that we can now detect these things a lot easier, and disable things automatically.

So basically with all the tests you do, I get shit clicks that look real. Since you'd need to fake browser and ip and such.

Any proof for this?

If you're buying traffic then yeah, we're gonna crawl your site, the same way google crawls your site when it indexes it. You're not paying for those hits though, so I don't see what the problem would be.
