IE and FireFox also check the links of the site you're about to visit to see if the URL is registered as possibly containing malware. My guess would be that Opera does the same. They each have their own database to determine these kind of things, as far as I know.Quote:

Anand knows about it. He's just trying to track down the culprit ad server.
Anandtech forums & the main site are ad free this weekend.
God damn, no wonder I had that damn Antivirus soft trojan after a visit to anandtech for the fermi review :mad:
Ad free or not I won't be visiting that site ever again :mad:
That seems like a rather irrational decision. You could get the same attacks from any site that uses the offending ad server.Quote:
