I'm still having hidden clicks, they are in my account and paid but not within the channels.

I'm sure I have channels for all ads. is there someone with a similar problem?

I've had a similar thing - for a while it was always a penny - strangest thing.

After I created a couple of the custom search engines, I noticed a few clicks. They are not publicly available, other than by somehow stumbling upon them at G. Think they might be coming from yours?

Oh, nice. Wish I could say that my stray clicks were for never more than 45 cents total in a day. That makes it even more curious where it's coming from.

I didn't see any hidden clicks, but I do have hidden page impressions: the total of my channels added up is lower than the total impressions shown.

One thing came to mind: didn't I enter my AdSense publisher ID when signing up my squidoo lense? I remember they had some AdSense revenue sharing, but I can not find any place to change this in my profile... I might ask big G where these impressions where generated.

(btw while I just visited my lense I noticed the "lense of the day" is Borats lense, he is everywhere: Jagshemash! Grin )

don't think that this is lense in my case because I get clicks paid (today 3 cliicks)

you can add a channel now (since a few days)

and of course I did this (there are two poss.: an error by Google or I placed somewhere the code and I forgot it)

by the way google is also paying for impressions (this is not my problem)
