>competitors cliks? You will always get those clicks at the beginning of a Campaign. Start @ #10 and work your way up. If, at some point, you feel that you are under attack - contact Overture.
Remember that they have a system in place to monitor this and will automatically credit your account.

Mike is right that Overture has an algo that spots suspect clicks but don't rely on it. Of all the PPC it is probably the best at spotting fraud but a pro can beat it easily.

Some companies do a better job than others at spotting fraud, but none are perfect. Also some companies are willing to work with you better than others, it can make a big difference at getting credits or refunds (of course that is after the fact, and not really preventative). SitePoint had a good article on this issue. [promotionbase.com ]

Get a list of your competitors IP addresses and keep it on file, always know who your competition is. :D Then once you have that list you can do snazzy things like mod_rewrite detecting their IP giving messages like... You are 'COMPANY' with IP your clicking activity from PAIDCLICK has been reported for multiple clicks ... so forth :D
