You can earn money simply by surfing the internet. It's easy to sign up, set up and start earning! The following links are legitimate. I have checked them out and joined them all. They cost you nothing. The way you make money is by downloading a "viewbar" or "window" that displays ads while you surf. If you don't mind a small ad window open on your browser, then you're ready to starting making some cash!
Some tips to maximize earnings:
1. Sign up with all of the links below. If you have 2 or more ad windows (each from different providers) running while you surf, that's twice (or more) the money! I usually have 3 going.
2. Refer your friends. Most of these links will pay you for referrals.
Open to residents of Canada, USA, Great Britain, Australia, France, Germany, New Zealand and many more. You earn $0.50 per hour (US dollars!) for a maximum of 25 hours per month. You can download the viewbar and begin earning immediately! I highly recommend All Advantage.

Be Paid guarantees a minimum hourly payout of $20, to a maximum of $160. Visit their site for more info on a great program! Full launch on May 15 2000!
Briefly, this is how they can pay at least $20 per hour: For example advertisers pay $34/hour per 1000 ads viewed. The average click through rate is 0.8%, meaning the advertisers actually pay $4 per visitor. By downloading BePaid, that money comes directly to you. That's right, in this example you'd get $4 for visiting their page. Do this 5 times per hour and you've got $20! The advertisers get a high click through rate, and it works out costing them less. Everyone's happy. More info on the bepaid page.
This sounds like the most amazing program yet!
