    Do you sometimes get clicks from strange sources?

    Some months ago I got thousands of clicks from www.Microsoft.com to one of my paysites. Fair enough... Bill gates is horny, and uses his superscipts to download all of my content...

    But last night I got 100 clicks from www.Adobe.com to a paysite I have not yet launched. lol. Can anyone explain this?

    How about you? Getting any strange traffic?

    Fake traffic would be my guess, or people using proxy software to fake the referrer... I doubt that you are getting traffic from MicroSoft or Adobe.

              I like seeing surfers click in off a PSP (didnt know they could surf on one of those gadgets)

              I also think its funny that more people click in using Win 3.1 OS than a Win95-run box
