Thats it! Nobody can access my site unless they're clean of parasites. This is gonna upset afew users (5-10% of my visitors) but they're not going to be my customers anyway.

Getting sick of all these. I am spending more time fighting these parasites that doing actual development.

How is this possible? I'd freeze a visitor in their tracks if I could implement a strategy to know if they were infected, then throw up a warning box telling them to get a clean bill of health or they don't get to play in my sandbox. God that would be an ideal solution.

So, Vaisg, how do you know who's infected and how do you stop them?

Getting sick of all these. I am spending more time fighting these parasites that doing actual development.

Now that's a novel approach. Is their a detect script showing the visitors browser is infested with commission stealing Adware? I'd love to tell my visitors to take a hike until they clean all the shanky parasites off their butts. It would be a nice project for the ABW affiliate managers to identify for all the AM firms recruiting these BHO victims. Then publish their other cleints so we could just pressure merchnats to fire the common infestation source. If an AM firm gets outed for condoning the systematic raping their merchant client's Ad budgets... they might get fired and sued for fraud or taking kickbacks.

Merchants that work with these parasites being very short-sighted as they (the parasites) are not just involved in affiliate commission stealing but also PPC frauds where they will display PPC ads to force click on infected client's browser.

Anyway, I would love to share the code but isn't it defeating the whole purpose of it if the parasite authors that are probably lurking around knows how we do it?

I spend two days on coding it. My method is a crude bruteforce way because I am not a coder. Basically it is just detecting for these parasite using a script and then redirect them to a spyware removal page where I will get a commission for it!! If they don't remove, then don't come back, good riddance.

For those merchants that are working with these scums, I will start to put their link code into javascript and look for alternative.

I don't know of any tool that will let -You- know if a visitor to your site is parasite infected. However you can use this script
http://www.doxdesk.com/software/js/parasite.html

It will alert/scare off infected visitors. Infected visitors that would probably send the commision somewhere else anyway.

The doxdesk script can be used as the detecting portion. You will need to add a line to set cookie.

Amend the following portion;

=================

function parasite_warn(info) {
var t= parasite_text;
var div= document.getElementById('parasite');
if (parasite_status!='dirty') {
parasite_status= 'dirty';
var h2= document.createElement('h2');
h2.appendChild(document.createTextNode(t.warn));
div.appendChild(h2);
div.style.display= 'block';
}
setCookie('parasitename',info[1],2); <=== add this line
var h= t.infest1+info[1]+t.infest2;
if (info[2]!='' || info[3]!='') h+= t.prob1;
if (info[2]!='') h+= t.can+parasite_probs(info[2]);
if (info[2]!='' && info[3]!='') h+= ','+t.and;
if (info[3]!='') h+= t.may+parasite_probs(info[3]);
h+= t.infest3;

var p= document.createElement('p');
p.appendChild(document.createTextNode(h));
var a= document.createElement('a');
var n= info[1];
var ix= n.indexOf('/');
if (ix!=-1) n= n.substring(0, ix);
a.href= parasite_url+n;
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode(t.info));
p.appendChild(a);
div.appendChild(p);
}

======================


The script for setting cookies, if anyone needs it (save as a cookies.js or something) ;

===============================

function setCookie(name,value,days)
{
if (days)
{
var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
}
else var expires = "";
document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/";
}

function getCookie(name)
{
var nameEQ = name + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i=0;i < ca.length;i++)
{
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1,c.length);
if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0) return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length);
}
return null;
}

function eraseCookie(name)
{
createCookie(name,"",-1);
}

====================================

Then some php code save as test.php to be placed in a frame within your target page;

<?
setcookie("testcookie",0,time()+60*60); // Test setting cookie
$test = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS["testcookie"] ;
if ($test==0) {
setcookie("testcookie",1,time()+60*60);
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"5\">";
}
elseif ($test==1) {
setcookie("testcookie",2,time()+60*60);
print "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"20\">";
}
else { // no cookie or refresh 3x already
setcookie("testcookie", "", time() - 3600);
}
$param = "$HTTP_COOKIE_VARS[parasitename]" ;
if ($param !== '') {
?>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (top.location!= location) {
top.location.replace(self.location.href);
}
if (self != top) { top.location.href = self.location.href }
-->
</script>
<P><B>Your warning message</B></P>
<P><?=$param?> found</P>
<?
}
?>

Finally, adding these on the HTML file;
<script type="text/javascript" src="cookies.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="parasite.js"></script>
<IFRAME src="test.php" width=4 height=4 frameborder=0 scrolling=no></IFRAME>

Need to also add these under parasite_classids section of parasite-data.js;

['21B4ACC4-8874-4AEC-AEAC-F567A249B4D4','180SearchAssistant','ASE',''],
['D5A5A2C7-7C4C-4a60-B507-B62932CE6ADD','WhenUSaveTB','ASE',''],
['05CE4481-8015-11D3-9811-C4DA9F000000','TopMoxie/EBates','ASE',''],
['7F241C00-DAB6-11d5-AAA8-0001028DF1BC','EBates','ASE',''],

Test and upload..

Maybe if everyone block these infected machines, maybe they will take the time to clean their system. Right now many chose to ignore "Your system may be infected with spyware" warning because of all the ads by the same people infecting their PCs.

Anyone can comment or can improve on it would be great.

Thanks for the info.! Ill bet if people started seeing warnings on , oh say half, of the websites they visited, most would eventually take action. Right now the main reason people remove parasites is the havoc they cause to the OS or browser. Probably 2 or more parasites on the same machine duking it out.

I'm amazed at how many on the list are promoted on this forum. It's best to check all the parsite sites for their merchant lists before joining new programs.

Andrew's script has been around quite a long time. Just be aware of what it can and can not detect.

Hello and thanks for the info.

What does "info No Discount eBay" mean?

Thank You,

It means that eBates is offering no rebate or coupon. But, they are just trying to get a (your) commission.

What it means is that everyone of those merchants (managed by a handful of AM firms) have endorsed eBates, and other BHO's, to play havic with your traffic and cookies. The BHO's with PPCSE searchbar plug-ins also drain & dilute your keyword budget spends for the very same merchants. There is no benefit for normal value-add affiliates to partner with any BHO infested merchant ...even if they're coupon only!

Hi Mike & Charlie,

I'm referring to eBay, in particular, which (i believe) is co-managed by eBay and CJ. Do you have any comment regarding eBay specifically?

Best,
Tuan

I've been able to keep my indies out of eBates hands. It's an ongoing fight. I don't know if it's going to last for ever but I'm not going to give up.

eBay only interest me as an outlet for clients with eBay storefronts tied to web sites I designed for them. They're a mass advertising force and therefore follow their own set of rules. Sell products through them... not to them.

Thanks for your comment M&C, much appreciated coming from you.

I can see, from a VAR standpoint, how affiliate revenue from storefront setup for business customers is a nice source of recurring revenue.

As to "Sell products through them... not to them.", I would point out the other side of the coin. The overwhelming majority of eBay 3rd party apss are for the supply side, and not the demand side as pertinent to affiliates.

Best,
Tuan

The ebates (and all the other parasites) con-men lobby the lunatics and idiots that run the Networks. The dickheads from the Networks believe everything that ebates (and all the other parasites) tells them including how the glitches in their programs keep popping up on a regular basis over the best shopping periods the tossers from the Networks keep giving them even more time to correct the glitches and if they cannot be corrected the Networks willingly alter their COC/TOS whatever they call it to accomodate them thus giving all the parasites carte-blanche to carry on stealing from us honest affiliates.

I just hope that when the court case comes off the Networks are classed as just as bad as the parasites for enabling and helping them to steal from us.

That's important to do, but it has to be simple for the benefit of the general public.
