    All internet business (at least for me) comes to a standstill on weekends...

    I make 75-100$ a day from my proxy network on weekdays and during the weekends I make if I'm lucky 25$ a day.:mad::mad::mad:

    To add to insult its a holiday weekend

    Oh well...... :cool:

    All internet business doesn't come to a standstill on weekends...Yours does...Of course proxy usage is going to drop on weekends. Most people use proxies at work or at school - and nobody does this on the weekend.

    There actually are some businesses that are move active on the weekends than weekdays ;)

    Hey, just think.. people who work offline don't make money at all during the weekend! So consider yourself lucky!

    I like weekends because I don't have work, but my internet income also drops during this time.

    I should have stated that I was generalizing.. just trying to put a more positive spin onto this.

    I find that my revenue goes up over the weekend, it's probably because my blog is more hobby oriented and people have more time then. :p

    Proxosurf is the proxy I use to test out different ad networks and templates..

    Firefox reporting that my site frauds its users is completely false - It just appeared today and I have never once seen that warning on any other site.....

    I reported my site as being incorrectly labeled as a fraud and demanded to be told why it was reported a fraud.

    Proxosurf only sees 1k visitors a day so...it's not a big loss if 5% of my users (% who use firefox) don't visit anymore. :cool:

    Fun way to start the weekend when I logged on and saw that LOL.....

    I mean honestly, It doesn't even make sense to label my proxy as a fraud site... I don't ask for login / keep logs of peoples history - How can I fraud them?


    Just another reason to hate the weekends - Now I have to spend my weekend calling/emailing/ect google to remove my site from this list......

    But there are many members who make big profits on weekend and less on working days.
