What sites pay you for your searches????

I thought I'd seen somewhere on here about web sites that pay you for your web searches. I decided to have a look but can't find anything either by forum search about it or web search! Am I going mad?

    Another website that pays for searches is scour. You get 1 point per search, 2 more points if you vote (by clicking on thumb up or thumb down) and 3 more points if you comment on the search. Once you have the minimum 6500 points, you can get a $25 visa gift card.

    You don't need a referral to sign up, but if you would like a referral from me then you can PM me.

    Link (non-referral): http://www.scour.com/
