Tempted by some ads that appear on my hub pages. Is it a policy violation to click?
Yes, especially a Google AdSense's policy violation which may lead to being banned from AdSense. If you are tempted by some ads, just search the product on Google without clicking them.
Thanks. I had forgotten that Adsense ads appear on my pages.
Do not click your own ads. You'll just have to settle for searching for the content on your own.

If you use google chrome there is an extension that gives you all the information about the ads on your page and will not let you click them (making it harder to be tempted). With some ads it will give you the link so you can check it out from there. It's kinda neat.
