Hey, Stop Stealing My Affiliate Commissions!
By Anik Singal

«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»

Don’t get offended, I was not speaking directly to you. 
I was speaking to the horrible companies who are stealing 
not only my affiliate commissions, but yours too! 

These companies are called “spyware.” They specialize in invading 
a consumer’s computer through unethical means and then literally 
replacing YOUR affiliate ID with their own! It is almost as if you never even existed!

Not only that, they even steal your future affiliate commissions 
by making sure that all future IDs are automatically replaced with their own. 
Even more, they can make it so that if the consumer goes to a website, 
a pop-up for a competing website (with their own affiliate ID) pops up 
and makes it impossible for you to get a sale.

As you likely agree, this is a major problem and it gets bigger and bigger every day.
The more we fight back, the slicker these companies get.


How much are they really stealing?

Would you believe that studies have shown that these companies 
could be stealing more than 50% of your affiliate commissions! 
Some studies have shown that it may even be higher, but 50% has been 
a repeated number in more than a few studies.

That means, as an affiliate marketer, you could potentially be making twice 
the money you are making now. 


How does Spyware work?

Spyware is basically a program that consumers will download onto their computer. 
They usually get it “along” with another program that they download for free. 
Spyware companies develop freebies for consumers to download 
so they can invade their computers.

Then, the software pretty much takes over the consumer’s computer. 
The software can replace affiliate IDs, create new cookies, 
make pop-ups appear and even steal passwords or other private information.

In other words, spyware companies are also the masters of viral marketing – 
they spread their disease via freebie information and programs that 
unsuspecting consumers download.

Who pays the price? You and I.


What is being done to stop it?

In all honesty, not much. It is not because no one cares, 
but more because the more we try to stop it, the more technical 
these companies get. As always, human eyes are being required 
to track down and stop these companies.

Affiliate managers and companies are becoming far more 
active in monitoring their affiliates to catch spyware. Affiliates are 
also becoming a bit more vigilant in reporting these companies 
(although not near enough).

There has been a moving trend towards software products that 
block these spyware agents. Consumers are slowly becoming more 
aggressive in trying to stop their computers from being invaded 
(they are tired of pop-ups). 


How you can help in the fight against spyware?

The biggest area we need to work on is by applying pressure 
to affiliate networks like LinkShare and Commission Junction to be 
far more active. Although these companies have strictly stated that 
they will immediately shut down spyware companies, more and 
more cases always seem to slip through.

You cannot really blame them, since the more affiliate sales, 
the more money they make. But, if enough genuine affiliates apply pressure, 
these companies will be forced to be even stricter. 

Do not get me wrong, they ARE starting to become a lot more active.

In all honesty, the next thing you can do, short of designing a 
break-through program to stop this problem, is to be more careful 
and report more actively. Any time you see an uninvited pop-up on 
your computer that has an affiliate ID in the link – you can be 98% sure 
that it is spyware.

Take the time to report it!

Other than that, for now, being educated about spyware is enough – 
spread the word and make sure more affiliates know.

Defrag

As you use your computer, it writes to the first available spot
on the hard drive. Over time, files tend to get rearranged on
your hard disk, or fragmented. This is a throwback to the
original Disk Operating System (DOS) which is still being used
today despite the newer versions of Windows.

If your disk is fragmented, when it tried to load a program, it
may have to grab one file from the middle of the hard drive, one
towards the outside, then back to the inside. The net result is
that you computer runs slower.

When you run a defrag program, it puts the pieces back together,
so stuff loads faster. It's probably a good idea for the average
user to defrag once every 2-3 months or so.

Windows includes a Disk Defragmentor tool under the
Start/Accessories/System Tools/Disk Defragmentor.

Warning - Be careful when running defrag. It takes a long time
to defragment a large hard drive (3 meg or higher). (I usually
run it at night) Also, the defrag program takes files off your
hard drive and sticks them into your system RAM while it's
reorganizing your disk. If you lose power during a disk
defragmentation, it can cause a real world of hurt. At best
you'll mess up a program or two and at worst you may no longer
be able to access your hard drive and Windows. Definitely not
something to do during a thunderstorm.

All of our computers have two identical hard drives. Before we
defrag, we always back up the one to be defragged to the other.
