    No, that is against AdSense TOS, your page has to at least have some content inside of it.

    You mean buy traffic (via Adwords) for a site that reviews or talks about Firefox/Picasa? If that's the case, then there's nothing wrong with it. Just make sure you don't TELL visitors to click on your referral buttons. Do a page with reviews of the product (VERY positive reviews, of course), and have the button handy to be clicked. Just don't cross the line by hinting or telling the visitor to click on your button to download it. Basically -- great review of the product and, oh look, there's the button to download it for free! Just, of course, don't say that.

    Yes, that is the reason why I don't use their default message. But how about its concept or trick? Good idea or not? Is it against AdSense TOS? Many thanks

    Ask them. People here can only give you their experiences. If you need a definitive answer, ask Google Adsense Support.

    If google deems you are buying traffic simplly to get clicks then that would be considered against TOS.
