Saw this on another post by dewclicks.
Hope this suggestion helps. This is what I used to do when I reviewed galleries.
1) Install Pop up stopper from panicware.com.
2) Activate the audio warning.
3) Turn up your sound card.
4) As soon as you click on the URL for each submission, if you hear the Pop-up warning, simply delete the submission.
This really speeds up reviewing and stops those annoying pop-up windows in their tracks.

Well... the fix is not for me, it's for people mailing me after reading the message I have up on my page right now. My bot usually takes care of these problems. I remember GoHip who had a dialer which screwed up people's browser settings. They had a fix available as well (hidden away somewhere on their site, they weren't happy I put that program on my front page), I was wondering if OffShoreClicks has a similar programComment

hmm. Unknown. Ill look into it and post when I get the info..

Hun, bro it hit me once and screwed up my shit, I went through the registry and removed a line I found in there, I cant remember the string, but I canceled my account with them after that especially since I emailed them and opened a support ticket for them to just laugh and call me amigo or some shit. Very shitty support denied any knowledge of a script and said that maybe I could have been more careful where I surfed. Total bullshit.Comment

the worst part is i had just signed up for thier program and was looking to see what the surfer would see. 2 min after joining and checking it out the shit hit me like that. oh, well the Proverbial line in the sand.Comment

I send you an .exe file through email, it might help you out.
So any mail from naughty with an .exe is not a virus
Now, would you list my ultra clean galleries for a change, j/k

if anyone has a sample link that hijacks systems it will be good to post it so we can see what can be done in order the surfer's system to come back in normal.
The worst scenario i have seen so far is a spyware popup that opens at random time and autocalls a dialer without surfers permission. It even doesnt allow you to cancel the proccess. It happened to me and I couldn't believe it! Imagine having your system on and be away from it for several hours....Comment

What's wrong with offshoreclicks?
They just want the surfer to verify his age by setting his new home page. That's an excellent way to verify one's age..
How low can you get?Comment

Hi there R3K, I was surprised to see that you were unhappy with our support so I went back to get the support ticket you mentioned. Funny, it comes off a little different in real life...:Originally posted by ^R3K^:

Hi, Antone here (admin). Could you please tell me a bit more about this, where did you pick up this script? From the fullpage activex install page? The only thing I could think of that you are referring to is the cancel function on the dialer .exe file; When a surfer downloads the dialer but chooses to NOT connect (hits the cancel button) he gets hit with a console through our xchange program. (paying the dialer webmaster $1CPM and returning a fresh hit to the URL of his choice). These consoles can often be quite messy as the webmasters set their own targetURL and we don't really monitor number of pops etc.

Great, glad to hear that it worked out. I did a quick search on "nasty scripts reports" and did find a couple of references to a script that pops consoles in the background aimed at our program, most if not all of these accounts have been cancelled for rule infractions. Most likely this is what you picked up somewhere, probably unrelated to the dialer.

I have a question for Hun or Offshoreclicks or the actual dialer company. Who is doing the actual Auto Downloading??? Is it some scumbag webmaster?? the Dialer Company providing the dialer??
or Offshore clicks??
I think some of us would like to know just who is doing the nasty dirty crap???

We have a run-of-the-mill activex dialer that does not dial etc without the users input.Comment

offshoreclicks how is that different from the way i told it?
maybe the joyess attitude i had in the ticket?
I have never Got anywhere in life by cussing out the person on the other end.
Maybe im missing something but i dont see the numourous times your support guy called me amigo and said ciao LOL.
im not picking a fight here i just stated something as it happend and it seems your support ticked proves what i said.
ThanksComment

R3K, well what got me is the fact that you claim we laughed at your request and gave "very shitty support". In my eyes we did what we could to help you even though we had no idea what script you where referring to. The amigo part is probably from the ticket system sig line... every support user chooses his own sig, I have "Regards," but others like to have something less formal... that's all.Comment

Offshore Clicks......are you guys Antone & Octave from the old BlindLinks program? I think it was called blindest.com ?
