Join a few sites for each program (NOT UNDER YOUR AFFLIATE CODE as that's frowned on by several programs) , take a look a around and keep your membership for 3 months and see if you see changes. If not, you can guarantee the surfer isn't either. Yes, it costs money, but geeze - it cost money to make money ;) Treat it as a business.

You can do the same with the free email proggies - come up with several different emails and use a different email for each (like [email protected], [email protected], etc) and see what's inside there AND what additional mailings that specific email address gets.
