Block AdSense on your computer

If you monetize your websites using Google AdSense, the last thing you want to do is accidently click your own ads. To completely disable AdSense on your PC, here’s what your should do. 1. Open your hosts file using Notepad. Depending on what version of Windows you’re using, it can be found here:
Windows 95 – C:windows
Windows 98 – C:\windows
Windows Me – C:\windows
Windows 2000 – C:windows\system32\drivers\etc
Windows XP – C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc
Windows NT – C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc
Windows Vista – C:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc
2. Paste this at the bottom of the file:
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com
3. Restart your browser – AdSense should be GONE!

Thanks for this. I did this a while ago, but forgot how to do it when I reinstalled Windows.

Very useful tip indeed, although i think Google wouldn’t make any problems with one or two accidentally clicks.

wow we sure don’t want this information getting into to many hand or it will kill or revenues! People can’t see the ads they definitely can’t click on them. As a webmaster it’s good to know seeing most website have very bad ad sense placement!

Nice little trick to stop accidental click as well from laggy pc days or laggy websites.

this is nice it will keep us away from getting banned from adsense… thankx for the share..
