Can anyone give me a valid reason NOT to join CashGopher?

So I have seen claims of "security threats", and "privacy issues" but I haven't found any valid reasons NOT to join Cashgopher? Is there even any? I think it's a great unique(but outdated.) concept and so far I haven't seen any real reason not to trust Mylot so why should anyone even be skeptical about CashGopher? There is some "mystery" to Cashgopher but there is still plenty of "mystery" to Mylot as well. Sooo back to my original question. Can anyone give me a valid reason NOT to join CashGopher? Please don't tell me about it not working 100% as of course, this is a new thing that they JUST released so there is bound to be some bugs. Also please don't tell me about, "megasearch" as I trust my research to determine that it is a "false-positive" and it's nothing to be worried about and if it's force-redirecting it seems to be in relation to you accepting it as your default search engine because you may have not read the TOS very clearly that you signed up with. Please also don't mention to me that your computer is going "slower" as of course it should be if you have your computer "idle" as they specified for a while. So any other reasons that might be nice to know in relation to CashGopher which might be a bad reason to get it? I still haven't found any valid reasons yet not to join CashGopher. I think the closest one is that they're still working out the "kinks" and there is some weird compatibility issues between browsers and operating systems but that's to be expected with any program. Hope you can inform me if you're experiencing any other issues!

I can't see any reason not to join especially after reading this discussion. Other members have done their homework and it seems like it's legit. I did download it but nothing happened. One member was kind enough to guide me through the process but I haven't looked into it to complete the process. Thanks for posting this very informative discussion.

I downloaded and installed Cash Gopher at last. But now I am thinking to uninstall it. Since my anti-virus suggests me to reinstall it. I am afraid it will be harmful for my computer and I am worried about the security. Since I often go shopping and then pay via the net. And I also deal with my bank accounts online. Especially my earning in Cash Gopher is just 2 cents and this is not worth for me to take a risk. Cash Gopher is very discouraging. I love China

Rate of earning. Living in a country which currently is not popular among most Internet based commercial activities means the amount I earn per day is very small. In fact I earn much more running Gomez Peer. On top of this Cash Gopher uses more resources. Being on the optimistic side I still have CasGopher running in the background. It is still new, and things may improve in the future. At the moment I can live with it.

Yeah, but you can turn it on and off whenever. You can also refer others to make a hefty amount. I could see an individual good at referring people making $10-$15+ a day from it.

By my calculations, you'd probably need close to 1000 referrals to make anything approaching $10 a day! Excepting the first day, I am averaging around $0.05 a day and I suspect that anyone who says they are earning 50 cents a day (without referrals) has misread the earnings page.

Anything above 300 referrals I consider "good". I suppose $10-$15 might be a BIT steep, though. Maybe $5-$10 would be more in the ball-park. On a $0.30 basis of a US person making that, that's in your downline... $0.075x100=$7.5.. a DAY. Already adding up. This is of course assuming their computers would be on EVERY day which is no guarantee that that's true. Most US people average around $0.20-$0.45+ a day(Based on about 20+ I have asked... which is quite a small amount to base on but still.) without referrals which would be a pretty main source of people I would be targeting. of course it would be appealing to international people as well but, yeah. Not as profitable. I'll campaign it of course to all referrals as any referrals is better then none. You're from the UK and only making $0.05 a day..? Hm... Unusual. Would think UK people would be making a bit more then that. How long do you leave your computer on, generally?

I have joined CashGopher and installed it as well. I plan to uninstall it. And I will do it soon. If you ask me why? I just found that it slower my computer's work.. And, I think that there is no certainty how to earn there.
