I’ve got some sites which have google’s adsense on them. Just today someone at my office clicked an ad on one of the sites I run (http://www.watchmyspam.com) and I’m now dreading Google banning my account. Everything here is going to look like it’s coming from one IP address, and I have previously checked my google adsense account from the office computer. I hope the stories of Google’s draconian behaviour are 1) outdated, 2) exaggerated or 3) not applicable any longer!

A bit about me
I've been working with the web since 1994, and with a variety of web technologies since 1996 - PHP, ASP, Perl, CF, Java, Grails and .Net. My main areas of expertise are in PHP and Grails these days.
I run GroovyMag and JSMag, monthly PDF magazines focused on Groovy and JavaScript, and also host the WebDevRadio podcast series.
I can be reached at michael@kimsal.com or mgkimsal@gmail.com :)

My Adsense account was banned last month out of no where for “invalid clicks”. I tried to write an appeal but the Google Adsense Team wrote me back and said that there is nothing I can do. So, I’m afraid the stories are in fact true… It’s very frustrating.
