  oh I did, it was a banner maybe 100 pixels height. I had a small app to make window transparent by clicking on them, so I started the bar, started the app, click the bar, it dissapeared but still registered viewing. I got maybe 25$ after a couple of months

      Well, that was a windows only thingy.

      And you have not just to wiggle around you have to press the one word which was green, and the position changed every time.

      But mostly, it was windows time

        I haven’t written windows code in like 25 years, but I think you could do the same thing with the MFC / Win APIs.

        I think I did something similar in Java to script RuneScape clicks. Man people would get pissed when I kept thieving on that chest upstairs from the cake stalls.
