Adsense Question

    I have Adsense, and I also have 3 computers running on the same router. Both of my little brothers are always on these computers. I have not told them about adsense because, i think that they might just go clicking away. Is there any way that i can prevent clicks on my ip?

    Edit the hosts file on each machine and add the line:

    127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com

    The hosts file is found in:

    C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC

    When you do this, ads will not display for any site.

    For every site on the web, or just my site?

    For any site. You other option is something like Adlogger (or it's alternative if that's no longer available) and put your local IPs in the restricted list so that ads won't be shown.
