What a wonderful idea!

You buy $2000 worth of advertisements on the internet that only YOU can see!

You install a "security update" file that hacks your browser and shows you the adverts that you paid for :) no one else on the net sees them .

You have to admire the gall of the designers .

A great story about a nasty site . . . .

Oooh, where do I sign up? I'm blond, IQ in double digits (heck maybe even binary!) and I buy things from parallel importers :eek:

Ads that only you can see are really good though, no-one else will get upset about seeing them and so are more likely to buy your stuff :p
