Watch out for the auto-surf feature!! I let mine surf while I was sleeping last night and woke up to adware and spyware installed all over the place....keep in mind it will probably be REALLY bad for those of you with broadband access. I surfed over 650 pages and ended up with over 60+ types of adware and spyware installed on my computer from the auto-surf feature!

You set your surf window to VIEW ads while you are not present to view it - correct? Then you whine because you caught viruses, spyware and trojans. Pardon me but this is CHEATING pure and simple and I hope the site owner comes here and reads this! Advertisers are paying for their ads to be seen by people - not to be displayed in a minimized window while you sleep. Personally I think it serves you right. Maybe if you had not attempted to CHEAT then your computer would not have been infected.


Will someone please contact the site owner and inform them of this thread? I think they should know how members are abusing the autosurf priviledges.

While I see what you're saying, I think the OP is saying that you need to watch out because a lot of surfing4cash.net 's ads have viruses and nasties attatched. Let's just chill out, you know people do it. Why not just go on a witch hunt. *And no, before you decide you want to flame me, I know that it's wrong, and I don't condone it.* I just think people are a little too uptight these days, that's all. And as for that, I'd whine even if I was awake and paying attention, since I was getting all these viruses. AND OTHER PEOPLE will get these viruses if this guy hadn't said something. What if they were honest members? Would it serve THEM right to get a virus? No.

If they didn't want it to happen why don't they switch their auto-surf feature to a system like other sites where you have to click on a link or button to go to the next page....their site automatically surfs without doing anything, you click on the start link and *boom* there ya go....so its not exactly cheating......

Switching it off is not an option with certain scripts. Besides HONEST members do NOT set up the surf window to surf for credit then go to bed. They do what they are supposed to and sit to view the ads. When I say he desreved it ---- it is in regards to his attempt to cheat a site. Then he tries to justify cheating by passing the blame to the site owner. He was cheating pure and simple. He came here to flame a site because he got infected with nasties while cheating - yet you think this is ok?

But he got those nasties FROM THAT SITE regardless of whether or not he was cheating. Say I watched the autosurf window all the time, and I got a nasty. I'd come here to say something too. And the ONLY person who deserves getting a virus/nasty is the person who wrote it to begin with. Personally I think you're missing the big picture here. Half the people who post here are here to post SCAM or CHEATER! It's getting really old. If you want to, just report him, you're the one who's so concerned with it, why wait for someone else to do it.
