I really would not trust something like that... especially if it came randomly through email... sounds too much like spam to me...


But from what I gather, it sounds like you just add an iframe to your pc, and people who click something inside the iframe have to install some kind of program or activex component (or did they say there wont be activex?, thereby giving you the $.085...

They want you to help them spread their spyware, by paying you $0.085 per infection.

What happens is that you put an <iframe> code that links to their page, which then uses either an exploit or a legitimate-but-sneaky means to install spyware onto basically everbody that visits your website.

Definitively not a great way to maintain customer loyalty.
