I am developing a piece of web software and was wondering if anyone know if I included adsense in the software if that would be ok? Its basically a web template that I am providing for free if you leave in the adsense. Any ideas?
i'm to lazy to re-read the TOS for you, but doesnt it say something about not re-distributing adsense in software? Did your read the TOS ?
If you're unsure just send an email to adsense team support... very nice comments thought But i belive we have an introduction forum
Thanks for the help. Yes, I did read the TOS and it was the typical 50% english, that part wasn't English.

I use it on my Free File Hosting Script (signature). When I emailed them about it, they said as long as the displaying page is legit, no problem, otherwise they will stop displaying ads on that page. You just have to be uptodate daily and insure that you get the emails they sent you. Peace,
I would not suggest it as a friend had used it and got banned in less than a month, they told him it was because the source of the clicks were not from a web server
