2 Days in a row with this same ad 

Post#1 » by JD225 » Thu Dec 10, 2009 5:31 pm

This is the second time in two days I've been re-directed to a link called top2009security.cn/ (various characters follow after the /)

It's not an ad, it's someone's avatar making that go. People who use animated avatars often wind up unwittingly transmittign crap like that.
