    Why am I getting no profit from clicks? One day I got 4 clicks, and it showed NO profit whatsoever? Not even 1 cent.. Lol.. Any way to fix? Or whats the problem?

    Clicks that are not counted (as in your case) were either invalidated because Adsense thinks it was fraud or because you click on your own ads and Adsense knows.

    Wow that's retarded. I advertise around where I live so most of my clicks so far (haven't started advertising on line yet) are from SG, so they think I'm asking people to click on the ads? lol? Everyone in SG has the same IP because of the ISP.. Wow that sucks. Every click I get from SG will get me no money from now on. Yay?

    You all won't have the exact same IP, I'm sure... However, yeah, that's a downside to advertising in your home town. :(

    All the IPs are exactly the same except for the last 2 numbers, which changes for most people anyway because of dynamic IPs.. LAME!

    No - I chose to fill space with solid color if ads are unavailable.

    Unfortunately, it looks like you are heading for a ban - it has happened before, where people got banned due to a large percentage of clicks on adverts coming from the same IP area.

    I would email Google and query it - because you could simply be wasting your time with adsense.

    I think Google expect local people to click on adverts ONLY if they use a search engine to find the site - as Google cannot track any 'offline promotion' of a website so they may discount it as 'clickfraud'

    Get decent traffic from decent countries (US and Europe) and you'll see money rolling in

    yes, public service ads won't get you money; when you post some new contnets until the adsense robots index your new contents these public service ads come up. So be patient it really works :D

    Target larger area, b/c IP addresses are tracked and those are not only tracked by last two digits infact that are also tracked by locations so go for wider visitors.

    That is not EXACTLY same, they are TOTALLY different IPs. Probably the last 3 digits change, atleast. Having the same class C IPs should not be a problem at all. Atlest, you must get paid for the first click!

    Probably the clicking on PSAs is a good reason. There is an unlikely chance of CPM ads, but even that should earn you a few cents atleast. Getting invalid clicks is very much a possibility, even though I canst say why. Make sure that you dont tell your friends anythign about adsense :)
