    Is it ok to click on the ad link unit and see what ads are shown ?
    Wanted to check if the ad's are relavent and are of intrest to the users.

    Is it in accordance to the TOS ?

    NO!!!!!!

    If you right click the ad, then click properties it will display the link, you can then cut & paste, but don't ever, never, ever click your own ads.

    I am talking about the adlink unit which displays 4 ad links. (NOT THE actual AD)

    You can click on an adlink to see what it shows. But if you click on anything within the subsequent list of results, then that'll be against TOS as that is where you start getting paid.

    Offcourse. Do not do that on the actual ad. Its ok to do it on a adlink unit to see that ads turn up.
