    Please let us know the exact links and programs you used so we may get a definition of what a "Traffic Exchange" is. Thanks...

    Why don't you post your info, calling me a thief is libel. Again you moron, My network does not generate a single click on your pothetic ad-sense ads. You are an ill informed idiot. Post your info and I will sue you for libel, I promise that. My site does not click on ads ever, you enter your site and hundreds of other members view your site, no clicks are involved. I bet you would not even run your mouth to my face, you are an internet weisel. Just post where the court needs to send the paperwork and I will get the libel suit started.

    I have several pages with links to useful sites on my site. They're not recripocal...just handly links for my visitors to have on hand.

    Because staying on the good side of Google is incredibly important to me I have removed their ads from any links page. They're all legitimate, but I am practicing extreme caution in regards to where I place my ads. I'd rather have a few ad free pages & not receive the dreaded goodbye e-mail from Google.

    My philosophy is when I'm in any doubt, remove the ads. I have plenty of other pages the ads are on.

    Learn to use paragraphs and bullets. The block of letters below may as well have been written in Latin for 99% of viewers - no one will read it.

    You can get your money back, sure, but it won't be from google. Something tells me this won't be the last problem you run into with signing something you don't understand. (Signing up for adsense, you "signed" their contract")

    Sampling of what you agreed to, and why you will not receive "your money" :

    When you signed up for adsense, did you neglect to read the terms you were agreeing to? It is not very good business practice to not read what you are signing, and you could lose much much more then 80.00 in the future if you make this same mistake when say : Purchasing a home, taking out a loan, etc, etc.

    khill05 - if I'm reading this correctly, you signed up for a traffic exchange network, the type where people basically autosurf, staying on each site for a period of time (around 20 - 25 seconds) before moving on to the next site.

    This is a breach of the Adsense TOS because it generates false traffic and therefore a false number of impressions.
