Question Free Limewire installs TopMoxie: question:

LW developers/Adam, you seem to have avoided this question the three times I posted it in my now closed, previous post.

As it is now the main issue with LimeWire, please respond:

Can you answer the concern that TopMoxie is fraudulently acquiring revenue for Limewire by means of false referrals? I realize that other companies/non-profits use TopMoxie, that isn't my question.

In detail:

If I go to amazon.com (for example), of my own accord, TopMoxie redirects my url to make it seem like I was referred there by limewire. Limewire then gets a percentage of the money I spend. Is that not stealing from amazon.com?

If I was visiting ebay.com and clicked their amazon.com banner, ebay would not get the referral, limewire would. Is that not stealing from ebay.com?


Am I incorrect in my knowledge of TopMoxie?
