I've been using this program for a month or so and i've made $21.19.

Basically this company tests websites for speed and such. They use your computers extra bandwidth for this and pay you on a time basis. So if you keep your computer on all night like i do then it starts to add up.

Install this program on the 4 computers you have at your house. (like me) and you'll start racking it up quickly.

With a min cash out limit of 5 bucks its pretty simple. Max you can make is 45 dollars.

So sign up and put me as a referal. Jamie_Murray

Any questions? Post 'em.

 

Smells like a big heaping pile of spam to me

 

can we say good chance of spyware, kids?

 

I went the other direction, remembered back to the days of SETI at Home. Granted you didn't get paid, but still helping other people out.

 

Seems legit to me. I've already been paypaled the money for last month.

 

It would be interesting to know how much it cost you in electricity to keep your computer on.

 

It's probably a break even proposition at best.

 

You could be paying over $400/year to keep a power hungry computer on 24/7 (big graphics cards, multiple HDs, etc). A more reasonable estimate would probably be about $200/year. You could also release in excess of 1 extra ton of CO2 into the atmosphere every year thanks to your added power consumption. Sounds like a sweet deal.

 

I use laptops.

That has also been brought up other places and my usual response is.

"That being said do not leave your computer on just to make money. The power it requres to run will probably eat all your profit.

However if your like me and don't like waiting for your computer to boot up so you just leave it on for weeks at a time, then by all means at least have it working for you."

 

Mmmmmmm, spam.
