I had high hopes for MileNet but that is diminishing quickly. I have not been able to access their server for days now via the software you download. When I do access the server, it crashes and boots me off after a few minutes. The only real way to earn miles is to refer others to join. I have a list of about 300 people that would join but it requires me to enter to email addresses one at a time. I don't have time for that and it's a moot point since their little server needs to be operational to do the task anyway.

Today, I received an email from MileNet admitting that they started on the internet ill-prepared and that it's going to be rough for a long time as they are not well financed. I give them credit for the honest letter. As a small positive, they have added 100 miles to all established accounts. So, with the few people I got to sign up, I earned 400 miles for about 30 minutes of effort. Not a bad deal but now I need to access their inaccessible server to redeem the miles!
