    If you look in the Account Settings section within the My Account tab, it shows that:

    AdSense for Content: ca-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    AdSense for Search: partner-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Referrals: ca-ref-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    but in the AdSense code it shows just "pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

    Hope this helps!
