    The my search funds scheme seems very good,After coming accross it i have done loads of research into it and i can't find a bad word against it anywhere,Not that i want to mind it's just that i like many other people believe that nothing is for nothing,And i just can't bring myself to subscribe to the site untill i have peace of mind.Therefore i would greatly appreciate it if anyone who is in the know could assure me that the site will not install some adware,Dialers or some dodgy spyware on my com,Thanks for your time.

    I have had my Acc suspended. They sent me a snotty E-mail @ 3am this morning I am a bit cross because I only do the same few searches a day (about 20 ish) Hardly abuse. And I have referred a couple of people.

    My account hasn't been suspended (yet), but they have taken most of my searches away for last week. I only do about 30 a day, and they're all legit, so I'm not too impressed! If it wasn't Google, I wouldn't bother with it - not now that we're down to 2p a search

    My virus scanner didn't pick up anything when I installed. I'm using MS One Care. It's picked up plenty of stuff off of webpages that are trying to run some kind of exploit. I don't think there's anything wrong with the My Search Funds site. The install isn't all that anyway, all you're really doing is changing the default search used by IE. You can also get credit for seaches on their homepage.

    I've been a member for a few weeks. I'm up to £5.22.

    Hopefully, I'll know for sure this is legit as soon as I get paid.
