    I'm Google Adsense publisher as many are but i have small problem
    as soon i talk to any colleague, friend or relative about Adsense they
    soon on later start clicking on my ads on my blog. No matter how much i explain they do it... (after all i can't explain everything to everyone).
    I don't know what are they upto...i will loose adsense this way !

    Block their IP's or IP blocks ( probably you will need to block the whole ISP ) - that's all what you can do in this case ..

    I must say your friends are quite supportive. :D Jokes apart, you can tell them not to click on the ads intentionally or you would loose your account. I hope they will understand. :)

    If someonehates you and just does it a ton it's not going to hurt you. Google is smarter than that

    This is a real problem... no matter how much you tell them they still think they're doing you a favour by clicking. The best advice is not to mention your AdSense at all to your friends. Of course some of them will be aware enough to notice the ads anyway when they visit your site... you'll just have to take that chance.

    tell them not to do it. It works for me and i think for most people too.
    Or just don't tell them about your sites. Simple

    Tell them about adsense but don't divulge your sites. Keep it a secret and you will have a lot less headaches ;)

    I don't tell my friends my sites. They know I have some, they don't know what or where. I know they're not interested in doing what I do, nor what I have and so I just don't ever tell them the urls.

    How to do that moreover they have dynamic one's

    Just telling them, google is smart, clicks from relatives are useless and ignored by google .
    I guess it will help . lol 
    Code (markup):
    Then they will do it regularly considering there might be day when Google don't trace them and i get earnings...btw funny reply :D:D.

    They think they can outsmart Google when i explain Google tracks IP, CTR, and localization of clicks they find it absurd :eek::eek:

    The best thing is to keep quite about the existence of your websites and the adesnse earnings. The more you talk about your site, chances are more to get fraudulent clicks...

    Prevention is better than cure ... never tell about Adsense to friends and family.. anyways now that you've told them about it just block their ips or tell them if they click ads on ur sites u'll lose ur account
