I think this has been going on for awhile, years..
I use click heat maps all over the place, one of them being on my warning page. I found that people kept clicking the words/text in the body that wasn't linked. Words like, Sexually Explicit, along with other very common words.
So, what I did was set a span tag on the words to split them up and changed a few words to graphics.
What I found was people quit clicking on the words. So, by simple deduction I came to the conclusion that some spyware/virus, toolbar, ect was replacing popular words on my warning pages, with links - that people would click.
Pretty much from that point I knew that some how, some way, people could steal clicks too and I would have no way of knowing it.
So hearing about this now finally means it will be corrected.
