    Yes but it's IE6 and I need my home page to be what it currently is

    You don't need to change your home page. They give you a link to "your personal" search page but you don't have to make it your home page.

    Just click the link and when you get to the page put it in your favourites. Then when you need to do a search just go to the page. It'll be no different to going to google to do a search.
  • Hi Liam

    You don't actually have to change your homepage, just bung this into your favourites:

  • How do you get paid?

    It says cheque or paypal but then has a space to put in your bank account details.

    I was told the Cheque payment is actually a bank transfer not an actual cheque. I don't know about paypal, but every time I look at my earnings there is a big red message saying "you have not entered your bank details so we can't pay you."

    I'll add my bank details when it it time to be paid and see what happens.

    Thanks for the tips about using the search link!
  • Hi there

    I've noticed that a lot of people are 'earning' here, but has anyone actually been paid? I also recall in one of the threads someone claimed to have been paid, which was then refuted - that usually isn't a good sign.
    I appreciate that it says you will get paid 45 days after the month of your searches; just wondering if anyone's been with them that long.

    Naturally my referral link is .



    Reflinks not allowed in this section (yes, I think it's stupid too :confused: )

    Agree absolutely that if people start making 100's of false searches every day they'll get caught out; their antifraud detection seems quite smart.

    I just use it instead of google, and get paid, so it's a bit of a no-brainer. As an example, the other day I was doing some research for some stuff I needed to buy, took me 89 searches:

    With google, I would have got the info needed; with MSF, I got the same information plus £2.70. Pretty simple choice :beer:

    I believe one person said they had, but the site's very new. I'm expecting payment in March, dunno if anyone here will have earned enough to get paid in Feb?

    I remember that person, or at least them claiming to have been paid. I looked into it found the site domain name had been registered in very late October last year. At the time the person claimed to have been paid they would have had to earn £15 in October, something I thought was impossible.

    I anyone joined the site when it opened they may have reached £15 by the end of November, so that would make the first payment around the middle of this month.

    The thread on the referrers board appeared on 17 December, so I doubt anyone on here has had a payment yet.
  • i just saw a sig with my search funds on , how do you earn the pennys from this one then ??;)
