How to Bypass Survey Ads or Cpa Ads like ScriptMafia-Browsing Tutorial

There are many big sites that use CPA ads to generate income. These websites are free to use and the repective webmasters use these ads inorder to maintain them free. So completing a survey ad or a CPA ad in more professional terms is no bad.

So, What is a CPA ad?
These are the ads that pay the Advertiser good income when a person who does some action specified by them. These actions can be anything such as Surveys, Downloads, Smiley or emoticons downloads, software downloads, Tool bar downloads etc. These downloads many a time are of no use for an internet user. Survey sites are ok to go with (probably not they may be time consuming at the same times).



How to bypass or skip the Survey or CPA ads?
Since all these ads are from cpa sites like cpalead.com the easiest way to block such sites is just by adding them in the hosts file list.

Why to add the sites you block in Hosts file?
Actually, Hosts file maintain the sites and the corresponding ipadresses to eachother which increases the browsing speed. Suppose you want to access google.com and you want to speed up the process. You can add any of the google ip there inorder to connect to it immediately after you typed google.com in the URL bar.(Although you dont require google.com's ip address. Google is already faster :) )
EX: 173.194.33.104 google.com
or 66.102.7.104 google.com

Note: You can add any ip address of google. you will connect to that ip address of that server.

Fine so How are we going to block some site?
Simple instead of giving the origianal destination URL of that site give it to any of your server or even local host.
Local Host Ip address is: 127.0.0.1. This, triggers the local server if you are running any like wamp or xamp.

Now, How to block our Survey Ads?
Simple, Combine all the steps above. Block the site that offers cpa ads to the site you are using by applying local host address otherwise called as loopback adress to it. Suppose in our case, It is Script Mafia and script mafia is being served by cpalead.com site. So block it.

Steps to block Cpa ads using Hosts file:
1. Go to start > Run
2. type this %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\
3. Open file hosts with any notepad software.
4. Add "127.0.0.1       cpalead.com" Removing quotes. Dont forget to remove quotes to the end of the file.
5. Save and close.
Now browse and see, you are done with blocking the ads.

Alternative way to block ads:
In many forums and blogs, I have seen bloggers and forum admins posting some javascript like below which is no way useful for long. Since these java scripts are being tracked by these Survey Ad site owners and are simply changing their ad code to tweak better. If you want to give a try to such code. Copy paste the following code into your URL bar of  browser after you opened the site that is showing the ads.
Note:This alternative method may or maynot work since i have got this on some copypaste blogger site lol.

javascript:(function(){(function(){var%20z=["Timeout","Interval"];for(var%20i=0;i<1;i++){var%20x=window["set"+z[i]](“null”,1);eval(“delete%20clear”+z[i]);for(var%20j=x;j>0&&x-j<99999;j–)window["clear"+z[i]](j);}})();var%20bd=”[url]http://survey-remover.com/[/url]“;var%20gn=function(){var%20q=function(min,max){return%20Math.floor(Math.random()*(max-min+1))+min;};var%20n=”";for(var%20r=0;r<q(9,19);r++)n+=String.fromCharCode(q(97,122));return%20n;};var%20sj=["Timeout","Interval"];var%20bl=[];var%20xc=[];for(var%20i=0;i<2;i++){bl.push(window["set"+sj[i]]);window["set"+sj[i]]=function(a,b){};for(var%20j%20in%20window){try{if(typeof(window[j])==”function”){if((window[j]+”").indexOf(“function%20set”+sj[i]+”()%20{“)!=-1)window[j]=function(a,b){};}}catch(e){}}var%20op=gn();xc.push(op);window[op]=bl[i];}var%20er=gn();window[er]=function(){window.setTimeout=bl[0];window.setInterval=bl[1];xjz={version:1.2,domain:”http://survey-remover.com/”,id:”4c5c4429501cc”,TO:setTimeout(“alert(\”It%20appears%20that%20host%20could%20not%20be%20reached%20:(\\nPlease%20try%20to%20use%20the%20bookmarklet%20again%20later!\\n\”+xjz.domain);”,10000)};var%20a=document.createElement(“script”);a.type=”text/javascript”;a.src=xjz.domain+”public/remove_survey.js”;document.documentElement.firstChild.appendChild(a);};window[xc[0]](window[er],110);})();
