@seth yes, on your profile page you can delete any result from the popular results cloud. As we get deeper into monetization, we will continue to improve our click fraud detection. Right now, multiple searches from the same IP are possible, we just need to determine time frame and number of repetitions.

Maybe this is common Lijit knowledge, but this post got me thinking. Is there a way for a publisher to manually remove terms from the 'Popular Results' to avoid something like this? Or does Lijit have a way to filter repetitive searches from the same IP to prevent it from becoming popular from only one user's searches?

You know though, the perp could be a non-myyahoolog user and not show up in myyahoolog at all.
