It sounds like you may need to do a really good cleaning and spyware search on your computer. I had an issue a while back where a bunch of the offers would take me to Survey Scout instead of the offer. It stayed like that for a while. I ran AVG and for some reason I never had the issue again. You might have something on your computer that is capturing your cookies. Try it out and see what happens. HTH!

I've seen this mentioned before on other forums. It most likely means they have that email in their database already. Try a different email.

AVG is free anti virus software. Google AVG Free and look for the free software on the site. I think it might be a page or two you will have to click through.
Did you try a new/different email address?

The same thing happens to me on all MID and popularliving ones. It's extremely annoying. I'm fairly certain by now that they must somehow track by IP b/c no matter what programs I run (avg, ccleaner, ad-aware, etc) or email addresses I use, I still get immediately thrown to google.

Ok I did AVG and CCleaner...hopefully they will help as I am not getting anything to credit anymore :( I did try the MID again and it worked so we will see if it credits. I am trying not to get frustrated but it seems like all of the offers go through the same sites so how do people get so many of them to credit? Do you have several different email addresses? I can tell by peoples banners that they have earned LOTS of money so I don't think SR is one of those things where you do good your first few weeks but that's it. :confused:

do you have a gmail account where you are moving your period around in the address. That is one way. Also some offers such as MID ones are manual uploads and Tricia only gets them every other day or so so don't completely get discouraged if you don't see it credited tonight.

Thanks! You are really smart when it comes to this stuff!
What is a gmail account? I have never heard of it. I have my mail email address on yahoo and then I have another one on yahoo I created soon after I started because my regular mail was getting overloaded! I switch between the two, it just depends on the offer.

ahh that would be the problem. head thee over to gmail.com and get yourself a very long email account. Once that is done we can talk further :)

google gmail and open a free email account with them. Make it kinda long so that you can make changes to it easily. So if you make the email zaneanthony at gmail.com then you can add periods in that email address anywhere you want and it will still get to that email address. Gmail will recognize mail addressed z.anth.ony at gmail.com the same as the original address. Offers will recognize them as different email addresses. This means you arent having to constantly create new addresses. You can use the same email and add periods anywhere in it that you want and it will be recognized as different addresses in the databases of the offers. HTH!
