If you were patient enough to read Google Adsense Program Policies, you would have noticed that they make it known that certain sites like porn sites, gambling sites etc are not ALLOWED into the program.
But did you know that bad guys could get a hold of your adsense script code (Don’t ask me how cos I’m still puzzled after getting wind of this 2 weeks ago) and paste it on any forbidden site and when Google Adsense gets wind of this, your account will be automatically FROZEN!
Do yourself a favor a use the Allowed Sites feature in your adsense account before it’s too late. This feature can be found under Adsense Setup as shown below:
Using this feature, you can specify which sites are allowed to display Google Adsense ads for your account.
Simply click on the second radio button that says “Only allow certain sites to show ads for my account” and then in the box that appears beneath fill in the sites that you want to show ads for your account.
Be sure to read the examples on the page carefully so as to get what you ACTUALLY want from this feature.
When you are done filling in your list of allowed sites, Save changes and that’s all. Your Google account has been protected from the bad guys.
Feel free to leave a comment about this feature below.

I am still waiting for my adsense account approval.I'll keep this point in my mind.
@Ricky: You might also want to add sites like blogcatalog and stumbleupon to your allowed list as they open your web pages in a frame.
I didn't get you. What do you mean by that?
@Ricky: Which part didn't you get?
I honestly never considered that this could happen. I suppose if you have a very vindictive competitor (s)he could do this, but I don't understand what the benefit would be for 'em. I already utilize the "allowed sites", but I wish there were more options to secure your site form, example, click bombing. Any suggestions?
@Kathleen: With regards to click bombing, someone once told me that Google monitors IPs like a hawk and so long as the click bombing didn't happen from an IP @ which you always access your Google accounts, you're safe. Then again I don't know how true this is as Google is yet to say anything with regards to preventing click bombing from competitors.
