r u putting both ads by google and clicksor on same page?

no content on page?(one line link without any description is considered enough content by google ..i am not sure)

encouraging users to click on ads?

google tos

Incentives
Web pages may not include incentives of any kind for users to click on ads. This includes encouraging users to click on the ads or to visit the advertisers' sites as well as drawing any undue attention to the ads. This activity is strictly prohibited in order to avoid potential inflation of advertiser costs. For example, your site cannot contain phrases such as "click here," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language that could apply to any ad, regardless of content

Get your site offline NOW. Then read the TOS, spend the time to fix your site, and put it back up online without any violations. Probably send an e-mail to AdSense support saying you realize you have made a mistake and that you are correcting it, in case they noticed already.

Tupelo--the urgency is this, in case you haven't had time to read the rest of WebmasterWorld: If Google bans you, there is NO coming back, and AdSense is the best advertising program going. You will be sorry if you get banned.

Sorry if this seems a little harsh, but perhaps we're seeing natural selection in action here?

If you don't read the TOS and can't figure out how to comply with them, might as well get shut down now as get shut down later and feel even worse about it.

Ask AOL Help.

In AOL try the keyword 'My Site'. This should take you to a screen where you can delete the page.

This all makes me wonder. How did Honey get an AdSense account in the first place? It doesn't sound as if she (?) has a quality site somewhere that Google actually have inspected and cleared.
