Too many sponsors set an expiration date on the affiliate tracking cookie, and sometimes a very short term one, and many have a variety of ways of overwriting the affiliate's link with the program's own code if the surfer comes back directly via typing the url of the paysite.
I don't have a way to check the expiration of your tracking cookies since I don't have an account yet, so please let me/us know how long the cookie lives if it's not overwritten by another affiliate's cookie.
Thanks!

Ours shouldn't expire unless it's over written by another affiliate. I look at affiliates as partners and to me that's just a cheap way to screw them and being I'm also an affiliate to many programs I wouldn't want to be treated that way.
