Google adSense program also offers Firefox browser downloads. So if you refer visitors and they download and install it, you get 1$ per install. The web site owner required in step 3 that you must have a Firefox browser installed as that service was "compatible" with FireFox browser only. Or otherwise you have to waste your first 2 steps, as nowhere it was mentioned before step 3.
