Bullsh*t!
You are presumably not stupid. You know exactly how most surfers will react when this stuff happens on their machines. So do we. So stop talking to us as if we only just swung down from the trees.
If you have a product people are going to want to buy, market it honestly and openly. If you need to download something to make the product usable, fine, but TELL PEOPLE HOW TO GET RID OF IT and don't start hitting them with popups launched from their own PC.
It's f*cking ridiculous. We are selling porn. People want porn: they don't have to be tricked and bullied into buying it. And it doesn't stop at the sleazy sales methods: I never saw a program yet which relied on such methods and offered anything but generic crap to those who were stupid enough to buy.
We can choose from dozens of sponsors who put time and effort into building sites which sell and which visitors enjoy. Some of them have been around for years and will be here for years to come. It's absolutely ridiculous to think about sending even a single surfer to someone who has done nothing more than have someone code a tricky piece of script.
