Not only was the damn thing linking back to the Nanorep home base, it also linked back to the client's main sites through a network of about 40k affiliate sites. Messy, to say the least. Together with the job his previous SEO Eggspurt had done on link building, getting the manual action lifted was interesting to say the least.

From where I'm standing, detection on this kind of link is still shaky at best…
