To protect the affiliate links in your web site, and stop commission thieves in their tracks, you can disguise all of your affiliate links so they appear to be links to other pages within your site by creating a "redirection URL" for each of them. To do this, simply create a new web page that looks like this:
<HTML>
hahahahahaha>
hahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=affiliate_url">
<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Replace "affiliate_url" with your actual coded affiliate URL, and remove the periods at the beginning of each line that are used here for demonstration purposes. Now you will advertise your disguised affiliate links by directing visitors to your new URL:
http://www.yourdomainname.com/redirection_page.html
Until there is some kind of consensus and perhaps action taken on the issue, the best way to fight back against commission hijackers is to protect your site as best you can, and inform your affiliate partners of how thief-ware hurts the small companies and sites that help make the Internet great - and depend on their affiliate income to survive.

Im pretty sure the scumware will still pick up the link and and change it...
Remember your not trying to defeat IE.... so the common sense ways of dealing with this wont work
