I am testing out feedburner to host my feeds. I thought it would fix my issue with the Google AdSense ads not clicking through within the feeds when clicked on.

When I click on the ad (do not click on the ad, its against TOS), I get the following screen.

One reason you may not be able to access this advertiser's website is because your web browser or email application is not configured to accept cookies. Cookies are small bits of text that websites place on visitors' computers to identify that they have visited a site previously. To access the site, you'll need to follow the steps below to set your browser or email application to accept cookies.

If you're using Internet Explorer, make sure your privacy setting is at medium or below.
Select 'Internet Options' from the 'Tools' menu in your browser window
Click the Privacy tab
Adjust your privacy setting if necessary

If you're using Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express, you'll also need to select Internet Explorer as your default web browser.
Open Internet Explorer
Select 'Internet Options' from the 'Tools' menu in your browser window
Click the 'Programs' tab and check the box for Internet Explorer to check if it is the default browser and save your change
Close your browser, re-open it, and when prompted, select Internet Explorer as your default
You can then click on an ad in your newsletter and visit the site you wish to view

Don't you think it should work in Safari? I have no idea if it works in Firefox or IE, but I suspect it works in most readers. Last time I tried, it did not work in bloglines (but I was using Safari, again).

It does work for me - maybe you're not using the latest Safari update.
