This is just repeating what you have already read in the tutorials (Part One):

DISABLE FIREWALL
WIN XP - Click Start, then click Setting, then click Control Panel. Double-click Security Center. (this is for the classic view - if you are using the other view, just click Start, then click Control Panel and then click Security Center.) Select Windows Firewall. Select Off. Click OK.

Norton Internet Security - Open Norton Internet Security. Select Status & Settings from the category bar to the left. Select Personal Firewall. Press the Turn Off button to the right.

McAfee Personal Firewall Plus -Right-click the McAfee icon in your system tray. Select Personal Firewall. Select Disable.

DISABLE ANTI-VIRUS/SPYWARE BLOCKERS
You should be able to click the icon in the system tray to disable any of these programs.

DISABLE POP-UP BLOCKER
IE - Click Tools, then click Internet Options. Click the Privacy tab and make sure "Block pop-ups" is UNCHECKED
Firefox - Click Tools, then click Options. Click the Content tab and make sure "Block pop-up windows" is UNCHECKED

ACCEPT ALL COOKIES
IE- Click Tools, then click Internet Options. Click the Privacy tab and move the slider all the way down in order to accept all cookies. (NOTE - You might have to click the Default button to get the slider.)

Firefox - Click Tools, then click Options. Click the Privacy tab. Under the Cookies section, make sure that "Accept cookies from sites" is CHECKED.

Once you have completed the sites and offers (and you are done for the day), you may return your computer to the original security settings. The reason you need to disable the security settings is because the programs will interfere with the offers being credited. If you follow these steps before doing any site, your chances of getting credited will GREATLY improve. There is no such thing as 100% foolproof, sometimes an offer will not credit no matter what you do to ensure it. However if you have done everything to ensure the credit, you can submit a support ticket or manual credit request - mcr-(some sites no longer accept mcrs, but if you submit a support ticket, you will get feedback from the site owner) and especially if you have a confirmation email with full headers, the site owner may be able to establish credit with the affiliate.

#3 NOW you are ready to go to the referral site!! Make sure no other programs/windows are open. You may keep a pm window open for support if you wish. Click the referral link and it will take you to the site. Enter your email address and click New User (unless you are signed up on another site in the same network - then you would click Existing User) Click Next Step or Continue, then enter your info. CAUTION!!! DO NOT enter false information - this will get your account put ON HOLD. Enter only correct and legitimate information. If you enter false information this is FRAUD!!!The same holds true for offers.

#4 STOP!!! After entering your information, read the TOS (terms of service) usually located at the bottom of the page. Make sure you understand all of the policies of the site. Log out of the site. CLEAR COOKIES!!!!

IE - Click Tools, then click Internet Options. Click "Delete Cookies or select "Clear Cookies". Click OK.

Firefox - Click Tools, then click Clear Private Data. Make sure the Cookies option is CHECKED. Click Clear Private Data Now.

#5 LOG BACK IN to the site. View your offers. Roll the mouse over each offer (without clicking) to view the requirements. If you see an offer you like, click it. Make sure you read the TOS for the offer before signing up for the offer and understand the costs involved. (NOTE - some trial offers will put a hold on your card for the full amount of the offer, but it will not post. However, the money will not be available on your card until the hold is released, so if you do not have the money available when you do the offer, the affiliate will decline your card. This is why it is important to read the TOS before signing up for an offer.) Also look at the time it takes to get credit - but note that "instant" does not mean "instaneously" - see below**. After you complete an offer, you will be taking to a "landing page" or the confirmation page. Keep this page open for a few minutes(5-10) before closing it. Repeat step 4 and do another offer. Depending on the weight(amount of credit) of the offer, you may have to do more than one offer in order to get the full credit for the site. Once you have completed enough offers to get your credit, you are done with the site. **Sometimes if an offer says "Instant Credit" it doesn't necessarily mean it will credit instantly. Most of the time these types of offers will credit within a day, but don't get discouraged if they do not. You don't have to keep logging into the site to see if you have greened, usually you will get an email telling you when an offer is credited. As soon as you are green:

#6 PM your trade partner and let them know that you are green. Include the site name you greened on, the email you used on the site, and your paypal email address. Once the trader has verified that you are green, they will send money to your paypal. You will get an email telling you that you have received payment. You may have to login to paypal and "ACCEPT" the money in your paypal first. Once you have verified that payment was sent, please do the following:

#7 Go the TM and complete the trade. Once you have completed the trade in the TM, please click "Info" at the right of the trade in the TM and leave positive feedback. Your trade partner will leave you feedback in kind.

#8 You are now ready to get referrals on your site and receive payments - that's the great thing about greening a site, you can keep on making money with it!!

#9 If you want to do another trade with your trade partner, let them know. That's it!! That's all you have to do to be a successful trader!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!! YOU ARE NOW A FLR TRADER!!!! ENJOY YOUR REWARDS!!!

First of all, read, read, read!!! There are many wonderful tutorial guides on FLR and that's what they are for - for you to read!! Here are some links to the most important ones:
Forum Rules
Getting Started in the World of Freesites
TRADE MANAGER TUTORIAL - MUST DO THIS BEFORE DOING A TRADE!!
How to Spot a Scammer
3 Ways to Check a Fellow Trader
Instructions for Newbies
Common Newbie Mistakes

NOW - After you have read the tutorials and you understand a little about what this is all about, start here:


#1 Go to the Paying for Referrals Forum. Find a trader that you would like to trade with. Reply to their trade thread or send them a pm. It is helpful if you have already completed any sites to mention this to the trader so they will not send you a referral link to a site that you have already completed. Remember - you CANNOT sign up for a site again unless it is a different site within the same network. Wish4Free and Monster are examples of networks - they offer different sites and it IS OK to sign up on more than one site in the same NETWORK. Example: Wish4Free offers several sites - paypal, games, and giftcards are three of them. You can sign up for all three of these sites with different traders or the same trader. BUT you CANNOT sign up for paypal with more than one trader. GOT IT? Great! If you violate this rule, you will COMMIT FRAUD!!

#2 Next the trader should send you a referral link and set up the trade in the Trade Manager (TM). After you receive the link, go to the TM and CONFIRM the trade. Once you have confirmed the trade, you are ready to go to the referral site. ]]> delobar http://www.freelunchroom.com/board/blogs/delobar/2183-delobars-newbie-startup-guide-part-one.html My Threads http://www.freelunchroom.com/board/blogs/delobar/2182-my-threads.html Thu, 06 Nov 2008 17:17:18 GMT http://www.freelunchroom.com/board/break-room-off-topic/182291-note-spammers-scammers.html ... http://www.freelunchroom.com/board/b...-scammers.html

Or you can post your own thoughts as well!

Why is that when you do something right, nobody cares, but if you do something wrong, nobody lets you forget it?

If you are lying in bed, does that mean you are not being honest about sleeping?

Why ask for permission when you can always ask for forgiveness later?

Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "Hey, I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink whatever comes out"?

Why is a person that handles your money called a 'Broker'?

How come we choose from just two people for President and fifty for Miss America? ]]> delobar http://www.freelunchroom.com/board/blogs/delobar/1820-random-thoughts.html
