    I don't think it's a good idea to click the link, because maybe google wil consider this as fraud !!

    Why not just Google the product or service you are interested in (eg. 'Google Pack', 'Firefox with Google Toolbar') and download it that way? Definitely don't use your own link.

    You can click on your referral links but you can't sign up through them

    Its equivelant to click fraud. Just don't click.

    That's a bad practice to be getting into the habit of. My advice is NOT to click any of your AdSense units.

    Some referrals are similar to regular click ads, with them offering payment for viewing certain pages. I wouldn't click it. If you go through adsense referrals, you can find the ad and company, and it should have a link to the site directly from there.
