Just got this from WEG cash:

HOT TOPIC: The recent Spyware/Adware/Zango situation...
We know that many of our webmasters read and share thoughts/ideas/biz on the most popular Adult Webmaster forum - GFY

In the last couple of weeks one of the big topics has been Affiliate ID hijacking, in particular one adware/spyware software called Zango has been brought to everyone's attention.

At this time we feel it necessary to let our webmasters know where WEGCash stands in regards to ANY spyware/adware/affiliate ID hijacking.

WEGCash does NOT accept traffic from Adware/Spyware software programs.

If we discover webmasters using fraudulent promotional methods, including the use of spyware or hijacking type methods, we will immediately terminate the webmaster's account without pay.

We monitor our system for any fraudulent activity on a daily basis using a variety of methods. From what we can determine, locating webmasters who are using adware/spyware methods is not always easy, however we are ALWAYS open to receiving information/complaints from fellow webmasters, and will investigate any situation brought to our attention.

The WEGCash Terms of Service will be updated to this effect to ensure compliance.

Affiliate ID Hijacking is stealing, pure and simple. WEGCash does not, nor will it EVER, knowingly support signup theft or questionable marketing methods.

If you have seen or believe you know of any WEGCash webmasters who may be using questionable promotional methods please do not hesitate in contacting any of your friendly affiliate representatives.

I bookmarked the thread on clean sponsors in my sig. Unless some of them update their TOS to reflect their stance, I wouldn't necessarily take their word for it. It has to be somewhere in black and white that they don't allow it and what the consequences are. It's one thing to say you're against it, it's another to enforce it.

Cams / AFF I don't know if you they will allow you to send them ""adware"" traffic but they seem to have no problem doing it themselves.

I haven't heard from imlive or webcams on this issue.

Sexsearch is all over the place on zango. I know they advertise here but do they post here as well.

Hey anyone heard from webcams.com in a while... lol haven't heard anything out of them.

I don't have a "press release" for clickcash, but i can tell you they are against it and please report any accounts you find doing it.

Rattlehead · 10-11-2006, 10:46 AM

AllureCash.net is against this practice as well and we hand approve affiliates and verify sales origination urls.

Fabien · 10-11-2006, 12:25 PM

seeric · 10-11-2006, 12:28 PM

Summary: Zango is making well over $10,000/day with their spyware and there is no shortage of sponsors who will accept their traffic.

Maybe the shortage should come from affiliates supporting sponsors who do not clamp down on it.

I will can anyone I catch doing it and they will not get paid.

Yes I know I only have three affiliates but it's a start.
