| It seems to me that a lot of the sites look similar. One thing I've noticed with any scam site is they usually have a 3-step process where you give very personal info that they shouldn't need. On the filesharing ones they usually have a pretty long list of bullets on thier main page. |

| long story http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=20771 it's not only here: the ads are automatically targeted to the keywords on the page. Soon after a site admin block them, they show up again, probably tiggered by different keywords and linked to different sites. However they do it--innocent money ends up in the wrong pockets. hehe--the advertisers are as quick as filesharers in getting around blocks. |

| Re: Stief's post; yep I've been making note of them & reporting to CC but still a few keep coming back. Last I heard CC was going to get things fixed up with google, etc. But it doesn't seem to have worked. I'll re-report them as I've been doing. |
