Well i think i should explain it better. This is what it is exactly :
* The code opens another window when you leave the first website.
I want to use this for hit to my second website. But because that the second website has adsense in it i need to know the exact answer if this is against TOS or not. I wouldnt want to get a risk for that.
What you described is exactly what a pop-under is. Google has no interest in sponsoring sites that are opened against a person's will.
Pop-ups, pop-unders or exit windows that interfere with site navigation, obscure Google ads, change user preferences, or are for downloads. Other types of pop-ups, pop-unders, or exit windows may be allowed, provided that they do not exceed a combined total of 5 per user session.
It might be allowable to open your other site as a popunder when the first site loads, but maybe not allowable to load it when a visitor tries to leave. If in doubt, run it by adsense support for the final word.
Personally, I'd be inclined to steer clear of the technique - I just hate being directed where I haven't tried to go, and so do most other web users. Why p*ss off your visitors? That won't make them more likely to click your ads.
No Google ad or Google search box may be displayed on any domain parking websites, pop-ups, pop-unders, or in any email.
That second excerpt is from the "site may not include" section and refers to the AdSense publisher using pop-ups/pop-unders at all. This is acceptable in limited quantities, but it's crystal clear that you can't pop up windows that contain AdSense.
