I'm pretty sure their would also be a few peeps very upset with Zango and pissed at themselves for downloading that Zango shit.
Do you want the truth? 99% of sponsors don't care where traffic comes from. You could be lining people up at gunpoint to join their site, as long as they don't charge back they don't care.

I would think though that processors such as CCBill and Epoch would be very, very smart to track the presence of zango in browsers and flag any affiliate that is getting excessively large amounts of their traffic in this fashion.
