We've been looking at the cookies on the computer at
work. Every now and
then, usually mid-evening, there is a collection of
cookies all of porn
sites all occurring within 10 mins. They are usually
accompanied by a
cookie called 'cashcount' or 'hypercount' which seems
to over cash for the
sites per hit.

Regards,
Mike
