Sort of off-topic but then again, maybe not.
Whats the deal with software including cracks and putting the link to it (megaupload, rapidshare etc) on my site with a content locker.
Is that still any good?
Yes... just be careful that you fake your referer if your network does not allow warez; you will want to use your own content locker. If you would be posting anything on a site hosted by you, I would reccomend a bulletproof host and domain registrar... although they are required to notify you and ask you to remove infringing content, so you would have a chance to remove it if you are paying attention.
Was planning to use leadbolt content locker, they allow most BH stuff.
Get "bulletproof" hosting and register your domain through bulletproof registrars. If you really want to go all out you'd use fake details on whatever you use for payment, and use proxies for everything... just in case the bulletproof host/registrar end up being not so bulletproof.
It is worth noting that there is no such thing as bulletproof hosting, or bulletproof registrars. These are both marketing techniques used by other marketers who start up webhosting services. The only benefit that you'd get from such a service is them looking the other way UNTIL they receive a formal complaint.
It is also worth noting that there is no such thing as 100% uptime.
I actually just found a site that I was analyzing and they were using leadbolt. Their domain registrar wasn't bulletproof, just private whois, but I believe the hosting is since it is located in russia; probably moreso to avoid having the host complain about warez than to avoid the companies complaining
However, I still would recommend using your own content locker and faking the referer. That way you can get on a better network with more, higher paying offers and less shaving. You can also use multiple networks this way to really get the broadest selection of offers, and it spreads the earnings/traffic out to draw less attention (although I guess that isn't an issue if using leadbolt).
Sorry for the newbie question, but how do I use my own content locker other than buying one for a steep price? Thanks for all the help btw!

Check out this thread. This might not be the simplest solution (until you figure out how to set it up once!), but it is probably the best you will find for free.
