Sure remember them, made some good money with them.
Would probaly made a lot more if I it was just a 50% partner program, they said things was free but still charged people.

Don't know if it was the FTC that brought them down or not?
Anyone?

They use to do mega prepaid advertising back then and thats how I did business for them back in the day.

I often wondered if they ever came back under a different name.

Remember they paid 18-20 cents per click at the most?

But they still shaved a lot of hits, remember they counted them all when it was at like 4 cent.

They sure made some shitload of money...

Troels, how many times have I told you that what you write yourself, you have to write outside the quote.
You've told me before you sent sex videos of yourself and KingK to them.

And NO, they didn't have gay sites.
That's why they never put it online, thank God for that!
