how about this a compramise.
The source/sources for mo money maker stay in ie spyadd by default but with your blessing ebates.cm adds a nice notice to iespyaddusers who wish to download mo money maker that they need to ither disable or uncheck/add this(these) url(s) to a exclude list to download and install mo money maker.
This way those who truely want to download mo money maker can do so and they will have the instructions on how to do so in plain english.
Um, how would this work? If IE-SPYAD users are blocked from going to ebates.com, how would they see the notice there advising IE-SPYAD users on how to unrestrict ebates.com? Or am I misreading your suggestion? If the notice is instead on Eric's site, they could read it (if they happened to notice it at the time), but would they remember it if they subsequently decided to use ebates?

If im not mistaken ebates.com it self isnt blocked its the domains for mo money maker that are blocked. If ebates is blocked unblock it and block only the mo money domains.

There may be other sites that are distributing MoMoneyMaker (either directly or bundled with ad-supported software), but I don't think there is a separate MMM website. I understand Eric's question pertains to the blocking of ebates.com as a means of restricting MMM, since I believe MMM connects to ebates.com in order to function.

One minor clarification:

IE-SPYAD places domains like ebates.com into the Restricted sites zone. Once placed in the Restricted sites zone, web sites cannot use certain technologies like Java, ActiveX, and scripting. The sites themselves are generally still accessible; it's just that certain parts of the web site may be "broken," as it were, depending on the nature of the content.

This is what Mr. Isolani was complaining about: that users were attempting to use services at ebates.com and that those services were broken because they were dependent upon technologies denied to sites and domains in the Restricted sites zone.

Best,

Eric L. Howes
