Combating MFAs (Made for AdSense Sites) and Undesirable Ads
What's an MFA? See What in the World is MFA?.
- AdsBlacklist
“AdsBlackList.com is a unique project designed to enable you to dramatically reduce the amount of MFA (made for ads) and LCPC (low cost per click) sites which appear through the use of PPC systems such as Google AdSense™, Yahoo Publisher Network™ and Chitika eMiniMalls.™” [Founded by Emir Pilavdzic, now owned by Vision i.T Services.] - MFA Blocker
A promising upcoming tool to help block MFA (Made for AdSense) sites from appearing in your AdSense listings on your site. “MFA Blocker traverses your AdSense sites and builds lists of the Ads being shown to your users. It then checks each Ad to make sure the site isn't showing YPN or AdSense Ads or any other garbage. Best of all, it geotargets the US and UK to make sure you filter the two highest paying markets. How many sites can MFA Blocker handle? As many as you want to load into it!” [Tool by Viveli Inc.]
Firefox Plugins for AdSense
- GraphSense
Plugin for Firefox or use separately with Greasemonkey and viewed with Firefox. “The entire idea is that instead of downloading reports to Excel you can view preformatted charts directly on the Web without any effort.” When you view reports within your AdSense administrative interface, you'll see the graphs appear. You can also save graphics as .png images if desired. [AdSense tool via GraphSense.] - AdSense Notifier

Lots more configurations with this free tool. Editor note: This is a fantastic AdSense tool that I use every day now. In addition, as of August 2007, Google AdSense reporting doesn't provide RPC, but this plugin does. This is only one element of this fabulous Firefox plugin, though.
