    Lets say a person gives his adsense code for forum (revenue sharing) and after a while he sees an interesting ad and clicks, and gets banned from adsense cuz of invalid clicks. He realizes that that day he had clicked on his own ads :) . Isn't it possible? Anyone thought of that? And also if you think this and never click on ads, shawn will go down :p joke/

    Right click on the ad, copy and link url. Get the url the ad is redirecting to. Go there!

    Dont worry about shawn, most of his clicks probably dont even come from members.

    btw.. is it hardcoded into the system (revenue sharing hack) that the person's id is not displayed for him?

    It hasn't always been the case!!! A while back, possibly for months, we could see our ads, from a vBulletin upgrade to 3.5.? until some one finally noticed there ID in the code!!!

    I remeber somebody posted a thread about this. He was seeing his own adsense ads from his login. But i think that problem has been fixed now.
