Do you click adsense adverts?

When you're browsing a website do you ever click an adsense advert? Whether it's because the advert interests you or simply to give the owner some money for their hard work?

I'm interested to hear your replies.

I do, however not often - Only when the advertisement is apealing to me.

I never click adsense ads. I only click the well designed banners because I wanna see if the site is as well designed. (Sad.. I know.)

Virtually never. Also, I don't feel OK with wasting the advertisers' money if I'm not truly interested in the ad.

I don't usually, however sometimes if I feel the site developer has done a good job, I will!

AdBlock is the stupidest ads blocking extension ever. Doesn't block anything. Popups...banners...is there a specific way i have to set it up?

Oh and i dont click on the links really..i only do if i like the owner of the site :P
