Protect Yourself From Clicking Your Ads Accidentally

You are aware that clicking on your own AdSense ads will lead to the termination of your Google AdSense account. To protect your Google Adsense account, you adhere to the Google AdSense terms and conditions. Because you are constantly working on your AdSense page in order to improve your Adsense earning, you fear that someday you may click on the AdSense ads accidentally.

Well, fear no more. There are two ways you can protect yourself from clicking on your AdSense Ads accidentally.

1. Disable Your Browser Javascript

If you disable browser Javascript setting, the Google Adense ads will not be shown while you are working on your AdSense page. The following steps will show you how to disable Javascript in Internet Explorer and Firefox.

Internet Explorer 3.X

- From the menu bar, select the Tools, then click on the Options.

- Select the "Security" tab page

- Uncheck "Run ActiveX scripts" to disable Javascript

- Restart the browser

Explorer 4.x

- From the menu bar, select the Tools, then click on the Internet Options.

- Select the Security tab page

- Select Custom and click on the Settings... button

- Select Disable under Active scripting to disable Javascript

- Restart the browser

Explorer 6.x

- From the menu bar, select the Tools, then click on the Internet Options.

- Select the Security tab page

- Select Custom Level... button

- Select Disable under Scripting > Active scripting to disable Javascript

- Restart the browser

FireFox

- From the menu bar, select the Tools, then click on the Options.

- Select the Content tab page

- Uncheck Enable Javascript to disable Javascript

- Restart the browser

You should be aware that by disabling Javascript in the browser, you may not view any PPC ads or use any Javascript related application in your browser

2. Edit the Hosts File In Your Computer

Open the host file in your PC with Word Pad/note pad and add the following entry in the host file of your PC:

- 127.0.0.2 pagead2.googlesyndication.com

Save the hosts file and restart your browser. You will not see the AdSense ad while you are working on your website.

You can find the hosts file from the following directory of your PC:

- Windows 95/98/Me, c:windows

- Windows NT/2000/XP Pro, c:winntsystem32driversetc

- Windows XP Home, c:windowssystem32driversetc

If this trick is applied, you would not be able to view any Google AdSense Ads from any AdSense site.
