I noticed a number of pop ups whilst testing a page with deeplinks to the same merchant, the last one was (after 5 clicks) was:

"You appear to be abusing our search engine listing. We thought you should know your actions are being logged. If you interest is genuine please bookmark our website – many thanks for your understanding."

Do you think this is acceptable from an affiliate point of view?

From a customer service, usability and accessibility point of view I think its totally stupid and considering the products on this page cost up to £3K I would probably shop elsewhere.

The merchant is on Affiliate Window and Webgains

I can imagine that someone might do that for traffic from paid search, but from your site?
Can't understand the logic behind it.

Even from paid search, if you were comparing prices on an item costing between £1k and £5k you may click on an advert more than once. It automatically accuses the user of being fraudulent and as for telling them there being tracked...
