Will keep this up until I hear of more reports of deactivation - I will see if I can get an official answer from ShoppingAds.

Just to be clear here, I never said that my SA account was deactivated because of using this mod.

I assume the issue was that I only used this mod, I had no other SA ads on the site.

I am still seeking clarification from ShoppingAds - just disambiguating some terms.

has anyone heard of drivingrevenue.com ?

it looks like they do link rewriting of eBay and Amazon among other affiliate retailers

I look forward to hearing how you have got on dismounted.

This mod is mostly my sole income through shoppingads, people don't click banner, but they do click ebay links.

Have you heard anything dismounted?

Not from support - however, I have the email of someone "higher up", which I have yet emailed to (too busy :().

So whats the latest, safe to use?

I would say so, I'm still using it, and they know it and I'm still getting paid.

I spoke to SA abot this when it happened. eBay made them pare down their publishers to the top producers. (eBay has been screwy with affiliates)

This hack is approved by both ebay and SA and is fine for use. I asked specifically, and both have approved the rewrites.
