a possible (but not a likely solution) is determining what triggers Zango to pop their ads

its most likely the domain or ip of the link being visited

without going too deep, could sponsors create a special "landing" domain / ip combination using simple aliases that zango pays no attention to?

or

this might be somewhat inefficient and impractical, but an in house session database that stores IPs and OS/browser information for unique hits... that way if another ad pops over or someone comes back it just matches the IP and other details to give credit to the correct affiliate (of course a sale or two could slip through the cracks with dynamic ips... but its not THAT likely since you're matching machine specific data to the IP)

this would probably require a few extra workhorse boxes to distribute this load w/o effecting load times that much... but sponsors might find this worth it to them to gain new interest & trust from affiliates
