I have also had many Russian affiliates that did nothing but try to scam the system. My program does not ban countries, but I do ban webmasters, and sorry to say, a majority of them have been from the former Soviet bloc.
If you check each new affiliate and those who generate signups it's not that hard to weed out those who try to fuck you over.

They say one bad apple spoils the barrel, and unfortunately for the honest Russian webmasters, there have been many barrels spoiled.

Why do you think so many programs will not deal with Russia except on an individual basis? You think Reagan brainwashed all of them to not like Russians or something?
General prejudice build up by bigger companies who couldn't screen affiliates in the earlier days of affiliate programs or didn't think it's worthwhile.
