Author: make more money, forget Spedia
Subject: SPEDIA IS A BIG JOKE!

WHY SPEDIA IS A BIG JOKE:

- you have to surf the web and change URL 3 times per minute to get paid! Nobody surfs like this, especially if you have a modem. I've used Spedia together with other programs for 2 whole months and in the best days I made 1/3 of what I made in the others (alladvantage, getpaid4, paidforsurf, etc.)

- the ad banner doesn't give you any problems except that it makes your computer slower to the point of sometimes typing a simple e-mail being just frustrating. It conflicts with SETI@HOME and other programs! Not to say it pops-up windows all the time on your screen. Yes, I know there is an option to deactivate this. Click it and you won't get paid for those special offers but the pop-ups continue... Is my intelligence the only one being insulted here or what..?

- you get an icon for spedia on your desktop and start menu whether you like it or not, if you delete them they come back when you restart the ad banner. Imagine what your desktop would look like if all software developing companies were this arrogant! Spedia doesn't respect you, they invade your computer with no shame. I wonder what they do behind our backs...

- the games... another insult... when you're playing you don't get paid for surfing (obviously) but they give you points for each game you win. YESSS!! I WON!!! I GOT 0.000001 dollars!!! Damn, I never played a version of solitaire that was so hard, I always used to win on my computer... I must be loosing it, Spedia wouldn't make it harder on purpose...

- 25% for directs referrals does sound good but... 25% out of a lowsy couple dollars is about nothing... Premier Member? Sure if you cheat to get the hours you need. This one deserves that you cheat.

SPEDIA IS A BIG JOKE, AND ALL OF US THAT USE IT THINKING WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SOME MONEY ARE THE CLOWNS!
