I've been working on gathering information on the best methods of blanking or spoofing referral information in affiliate cookies be used on ebay and other auction sites. I know this has been a widely discussed topic here and wanted share/get feedback on possible uses for this script.
It has an admin section with default login of admin/admin that displays campaign name, real affiliate link url, and encrypted (hashed) url you place on your web pages to make creating/updating links on your webpages as easy as a copy and paste.
Heres the script:
