In last months I was warned multiple times by some of our affiliates, that other affiliates in our own affiliate program are doing fraudulent activities with cookie stuffing.
Every time I acted immediately and declined affiliate account and asked affiliate to fix the problem. In most cases affiliates removed the cookie stuffing code within 1-3 days.
In our specific case our affiliates loaded content of Quality Unit website in hidden iframe, what tracked visitor as if he made regular click on affiliate link.
If same visitor placed later the order, affiliate was payed even if visitor didn't click on affiliate link. It is one of the cookie stuffing examples described in Wikipedia.
I felt like we need to find a permanent solution, which will not require any manual work of affiliate manager.
We decided, that we will fight against Iframe Cookie Stuffing automatically in Post Affiliate Pro. Starting from Post Affiliate Pro 4.5.67.3 (RELEASED on March 7, 2011) can merchant activate in Fraud Protection options a checkbox, which will activate iframe cookie stuffing protection.
By default is this option switched off, but I strongly recommend to each merchant protect his moeny and also commissions of other affiliates by this fraud protection option.

Yesterday I was interviewed by Geno Prussakov (founder of AM Navigator) about affiliate software, affiliate networks and Post Affiliate Pro.
First time I saw Geno during Affiliate Summit East 2010 in Las Vegas. His session '20 Affiliate Program Management Mistakes To Avoid' was one of the most interesting sessions from Affiliate Summit East 2010 - not just because he had half of the session problems with laptop used for presentation :-).

It was nice surprise for me, when he asked me to make a short interview together about affiliate software and Post Affiliate Pro.

Cookie life time parameter in affiliate program defines, how long will be valid relation between visitor and affiliate, after visitor clicked on affiliate link.
If in defined time will buy customer any product, affiliate will get commission for such sale. If customer will make sale after this period, commissions will not be assigned to affiliate, because cookie already expired.
