Really Pissed About Zwinkys Toolbar offer

You're just plain wrong.

weren't you the one who originally said that you didn't think there was an issue with FF?

I'm only posting what was told to me and what I've noticed. Maybe others are experiencing issues, but I haven't.
 


I'm not sure what zwinkys you guys are running, but this is straight from my AM who got it from the IAC rep:
Internet Explorer 4+

...

Your rep is lying to you or he's being lied too. I can't 100% say that every network doesn't track, but I know a couple of the major ones don't, so I imagine this is the same for all.

We can argue this all freakin' day and get no where. Plain and simple, if you're not redirecting your FireFox leads to a non IAC offer, you're leaving money on the table.

oh, and if you think FF doesn't make up a significant portion of your traffic, you're wrong again.

internet explorer downloads straight to the browser, fire fox downloads a separate file then the user has to install it separately. You can't install 3rd party apps/toolbars directly to firefox.

Thats my guess
 
Either way, you're sending traffic and not getting paid for it.

Redirect and get paid.
