Those that buy a shit ton of pops would cookie a passive link so their link stands no matter who sent the traffic.
If the affiliate cookie is the only means of tracking the referrer then the original affiliate gets credit - I checked by looking at the cookies themselves...

It's hard to say if that's a good or a bad thing considering all the circumstances - For the time being just use a WL - There is no issue then.....
