    I have few questions. Maybe some of them will be repeating from other threads , if yes then sorry.
    1-
    My IP address is not static. Everytime I log into the internet it is changed. How will Google recognize it is "me" clicking ads ? (I mean the owner of site)
    2- I read on one of threads about maximum limit of clicking on ads from one IP adress in an hour ? Is there any really maximum limit for clicks in an hour ? But internet clubs have same IP on their network. What will happen in this case ? And second problem of limits should be : If there is any limit then any other third person can ban anyones account on adsense with clicking ( or using special program) on ads many times

    $$$$$$$$$$$ to all of you :)

    Your IP is the main way. Just because your IP isn't static it doesn't mean they can't know it's you. If enough clicks are from the same class IP (The block your ISP owns) theres a pretty good chance that they are the same person, Even though the actual IP is different.

    I also assume you log in to adsense regularly? Log in to gmail regularly? They are going to know your IP has changed pretty much as soon as it changes. probably even before you do.

    They also look for click patterns to detirmine false clicks. How long the person has been on the page before clicking an advert, Have they clicked adverts on your site before, Where have they come from, Does this person click other ads on other sites or just your site.

    Trust me they know...They can do black magic.....They figured out through my adwords account that my adsense account was associated with a previously disabled account which isn't fair in my opinion because every one has the birth right to have their own adsense account........Damn Google!!!
