    One two times is fine to consider as "accidentally". Nothing much to worry
    However, dont make it happen again and again or you will get banned

    Google won't get you as long as you don't click your ads constantly, or have other people do it for you, 1 or two are fine.

    Well don't click at all dear. Because if nothing has happened yet then it can happen at any moment so be at safe side.

    Don't worry, no need to contact Google, but try to avoid this in the future, otherwise you could be banned

    click proud?

    Most CMSes have plugins or modules that will not display advertising to normal visitors or logged in users. All depends on what you;re running as a platform. That's really a question best for their support forums though.

    I don't think that it will worry you but google is very strict in this matter, they might banned you. But you will not get a response if you mail them. It is better you don't mail them and pray to God, if 1-2 day pass out and your account is safe then no need to worry.

    Not a problem if it only happened once. I would really be careful with doing it again though..Google are strict nowadays!
