Had no ads on any of my sites for the last two hours. Was just composing an e-mail to adsense, and now they've all come back on! Maybe something to do with my doing a site-wide check of external links, and I think the program I used tried to access the adsense links..... A warning to others perhaps? Thanks, Rob.

As long as you are allowed to sign in to your AdSense account, you are not banned. If you disabled PSAs, no ads will be served in case of targetting problems.

I would have "shatt'd" myself!
i've never considered the danger of 'link checking' programs on my site. I wonder if they try clicking on the AdSense ads?
If you get banned, I guess we'll know..

It's virtually impossible that a link checker would even trigger a pageview, much less click on an AdSense ad.
