I used to use another get-paid-to-surf program which I shall remain anonymous to prevent free plugs. The damn thing slowed up my computer, crashed all the time, and I was getting paid peanuts (well, cents, but you know what I’m saying)

If you’re post isn’t spam, dump the program. None of these get-paid-to-surf programs are worth it.

after several emails to the perps . . i finally got a palatable yet foggy answer . . their having trouble selling ads it sounds like to me. sort of “as advertisers join in” . . blah blah. i think they used the “software is not ready” excuse to try to hide the fact they have like NO advertisers.
