    I have been using adsense on my blog

    http://spiritualghost.blogspot.com

    and promote it on various forums. Once someone from Pakistan asked me how they cud acces my site because Pakistan Govt has banned access to all blogspot domains.So i suggested the guy to view my blog through a proxy site.

    Now i wonder whether if someone clicks on ur adsense ads using a proxy server...is that clcik considered legal or valid? :confused:

    IF everybody acess through the same proxy, adsense will consider them invalid almost 100% sure...

    thanks for replying my friend. But I dont think all traffic would come from same server. And actually..ther's very less traffic from that country

    This is highly risky.
    Google will find out that the clicks came from using a proxy and they will ban your account. I got a mail from them on this same issue. Though they gae me a threat, but dint banned me.

    Maybe you can help your readers from pakistan by telling them to open your blog through this address:

    pkblogs.com/spiritualghost

    I hope this helps.

    Javascript is disabled by default in most proxy services.

    Without it, Google ads are not displayed.

    I have tested numerous proxy services and none of them have been able to display any javascript code, including general scripting (clocks, date, effects, fuctions) so the limitation is not AdSense-unique, but all javascript.

    If set by you, php scripts as well, but I'm talking about public online proxy servers which have this option disable, even if you check the corresponding box trying to keep this functionality.

    Well I thought it was banned because while promoting my blog in an orkut forum, I got replies from a few pakistani friends who wanted to view my blog but said they were not able to access it. I thought it might have been banned because blogspot was once banned in India for a few days after the Bombay train blasts
