Has anyone tried to combat the morons who use img src tags to cheat?

Sure you can use a gateway page, but the surfer has to click an enter link...

How about using a meta-refresh page, and throw in the bit of java script to also do the fowarding... ? (I am testing it now)

If you want to see it work... click:

Yep, its my own CJ script....

I see only good from it, but maybe this isn't a good thing to do? any answers...

Sure you would have to recode what ever script you are using... Sorry ES....

just add productivity tracking to your script and a cron job to check/email you if a user sends traffic with a productivity lower than X.XX

Hi, i'm using my own CJ script. And i never had this problem (<img src=), because my script tracks surfer path within my site. And if somebody came in, but hasn't clicked anything within my site, then my script doesn't count this hit for this trader.
