Sextracker have been using there counters and dialers to drop trojan virus onto peoples computers for a few years.

Once a computer has been infected sextracker can then send commands to the computer to make it behave anyway they want.

It can redirect pages, it can change urls, it can access peoples email and instant messsenger lists and instruct them to send an email to everyone in the contact list on the users behalf recommending whatever site sextracker want to promote, it delivers op ups, it can be used to launch DDos attacks...

in short the computer no longer belongs to the owner but to Sextracker. Commands to computers can be done down to an individual IP number and are issued from a bank of servers located in various parts of the world

If you send traffic to sextracker or moneytree and your surfer is infected by the trojan then you have lost that surfer forever, they will never be able to access your site again if ST decide they dont want them to.

We caught them when we discovered we had an infected computer, we typed in netpond.com and it sent us directly to moneytree, in fact no matter what URL we typed into browser it redirected us to Moneytree.

We bought two new computers and infected one of them and then we spent 2 weeks videoing what happened to each computer we then flew our lawyer over and he spent 3 days doing same thing.

30% of our clients traffic dissapeared over night and at that stage we were running millions of hits a day so you can do the math.
