My Internet service provider here in Australia sent me this email last week. I didn't actually look into it, but if they can get credible sources like Internet service providers to recommend it that will help them a lot.

To all L.I.S clients,
In our travels we have found what would appear to be a great new web site called
AllAdvantage. These people will pay you to surf the web. They will even pay you when
your friends are surfing the web.
We have included the link to view the site below.
The sign up, if your interested takes less than a minute, there is no survey to fill
in, and they guarantee not to give or sell your information to anyone else, so there
is no worry about receiving spam e-mail. Once you have signed up go tell your friends
:)
alladvantage.com
The reason that we like the site is because of the sterling review that
www.TOURBUS.com gave AllAdvantage. We have included their review below for you to have
a read through.
cheers,
The LIS Team

GET PAID TO SURF?
-----------------
You've probably seen offers with that title before. But typically they are the type of
thing where you have to convince a certain number of friends to choose a certain
Internet service provider, in exchange for a discounted rate or a small monthly
referral bonus.
And you probably remember reading in Tourbus about Juno and NetZero, the email and
Internet providers which give you free access in return for putting up with
advertising messages on your screen.
But the AllAdvantage.com program is quite different. As a member, they will PAY you
50US cents an hour while you surf the Web for up to 40 hours per month. That means you
can earn up to $20US per month just for browsing the Internet the way you normally do.
We all know there's no such thing as a free lunch, so what's the catch? All members
download the AllAdvantage.com Viewbar(tm), a little piece of software that displays a
standard size ad banner on the bottom of your screen. The Viewbar pops up when you
open an Internet connection and displays a stream of advertising messages. However, it
can be minimized from your screen with a single click at any time. For more info,
click on the link below:

Is It a Scam? Will it Work?
----------------------------
I've done some checking around and the program seems perfectly legit. It's been widely
reported in major news outlets, and all the comments I've read praise the idea as an
clever new online advertising model.
The AllAdvantage program requires that you divulge your name & address (so they can
send you your monthly check) but their privacy policy is clear that your personal info
will not be shared or sold.
The folks at AllAdvantage are betting that you will happily tolerate the advertising
messages in return for a bit of cold hard cash. Seems like a fair trade to me...
people are already used to the idea of seeing banner ads on web sites, so why not get
paid for the trouble?
But Wait, There's More
----------------------
...And it's even better than a free set of steak knives. If you refer friends to
AllAdvantage.com you'll get 10US cents per hour while THEY surf the Web. And you'll
receive an additional 5US cents per hour from
the extended referrals that come in from your referrals. So if you refer a bunch of
friends who do the same, you could earn a lot more than $20US a month.
My motto when it comes to this kind of speculative venture is "SOME money is better
than NO money", and it looks like there's nothing to lose here. I've decided to throw
my hat into the ring, and if you want to give it a try too, here's the address again:
