Does Anyone Here Have Experience with "AdSense Cloaker"? It came well recommended, but now I can't even find the site.

The site seems to have been taken down. You can find a cached version if you search for it on Google and click the cached link under their listing. Looks like you are not going to be able to get a copy though.

Well, it was there as recently as a week ago. Strange. Any ideas, people?

First, thanks for that link.

Second, anyone else? Any news? Ideas?

First, I've never even heard of anything like that program. Second, Yahoo does not ban sites simply for having Adsense on them. Third, I am almost certain that if you hid your Adsense ads in any way from a bot, you would eventually get banned from Adsense and/or de-indexed from Google. Just my 2 cents.

Well, AdSense Cloaker's claim to fame is not that it hides the code, which would be tinkering with the AdSense code, which is a major no-no. Rather, it uses a simple javascript to either load the code or not. That technically doesn't mess with the code. You can also include or exclude various search engines in the IP address list, so, in the case of Google, who would be rather enthusiastic about your participation in their program. Currently, my settings don't cloak against Google. I'm not terribly concerned about Yahoo. BING is another matter entirely.
