8. Perhaps some kind of malware you picked up surfing for porn?

Don't those ads display stuff based on the websites you visit?

13. The owner of those ads is a Chinese criminal infecting Windows CPUs with malware worldwide.

Edited on Sun Aug-30-09 08:39 AM by onehandle

Microsoft is suing him for click fraud and Google is after him for an AdSense scheme.

Don't click on them.

Just another reason to own a Mac.
