Hello Dennis, There are two ways to exclude specific sites using the AdWords API. You can use the setCampaignNegativeCriteria() call:
http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/CriterionService.html#setCampaignNegativeCriteria which will add a campaign-level negative criteria to a specific campaign. The negative criteria will apply to all ad groups in that campaign. You can also exclude sites by adding negative criteria to a specific ad group using addCriteria() http://code.google.com/apis/adwords/docs/developer/CriterionService.html#addCriteria and passing in as a parameter a Website criterion object that has its "negative" property set to true. Does that clear anything up? If not, could you please pass along the requestId (found in the SOAP response header) for the API call that results in the error message you're reporting?
