| Description:
|
Paid to surf plugin for Internet Explorer.
"Required means that to earn cash you have to have an Internet browser as your active window and surf the Internet (change the address ever so often). Not required means that you only need to be connected to the Internet and use your computer (move mouse or use keyboard ever so often). Click means that in addition to required or no (see above); you are also required to click on some of the ads shown. The usual requirement is about 1 click per 50 minutes. Personally I'm very much for "No" over "Req." here. That way I can do whatever I like on the Internet and do not have to worry about change web pages ever so often just to keep earning. It's a lot easier to move your mouse every 30 seconds than changing the web address every minute."

Browser Plug-in - Adware is generally software that displays advertisements. Some advertisers may covertly install adware on your system and generate a stream of unsolicited advertisements that can clutter your desktop and affect your productivity. The advertisements may also contain pornographic or other material that you might find inappropriate. The extra processing required to track you or to display advertisements can tax your computer and hurt your system performance. |
