OK, WTF is going on..

[Dr.Gonzo]

OK. This is really messed up. I found exactly where to click to get the ad to pop up. In the lower right hand corner of each table row that has the topic header and info there is a tiny spot that you can click to get this stupid ad. I can't find anything in the HTML code from this site, but it could be hidden.

Does this happend to anyone else? I've run SpyBot and AdAware and both come up with nothing. This is driving me insane.

It's probably Purityscan

Go to their website and use their uninstaller.
