Once in awhile my traffic stats show:
CJNetworkQuality; http://www.cj.com/networkquality

Anyone know what this is?

1. What does the network quality utility do?
The network quality utility tool searches each publisher Web site that is registered in the Commission Junction network that generates traffic to monitor compliance to the Publisher Service Agreement, specifically, Sections 1 and/or 2.2. Additionally, searches are made to monitor continued compliance to advertisers' special terms and conditions.

It looks like they are quality checking and compliance checking for Publisher Service Agreement on a daily basis. Bad links, cookie stuffing etc.

What would happen if I blocked them from accessing my site. It's funny because on of the site that they are "scanning" I don't have any cj offers on nor have I added that website to the list in the CJ control panel

What about cloaking your page so that CJ gets sent to something innocuous? That way you could still cookie stuff, etc without them shutting you down...

Hmm thats a good idea. Now I just need to figure out how to do it. I'm currently using wordpress blog (on my own server) but don't know where to begin. Would I need the IP Address of the useragent that needs to be redirected? Anyone got a script for this i could embed in my page source?
