Ads that distribute malware

This wasn't the result of a forum advertisement, it was coming from a site someone was using to host an image. Steve removed the image from the thread, and I searched to confirm that nothing else on the forum was being hosted there, so you shouldn't see it again.

The screenshots say it was barftopia, which appears to be the personal website of a member. It's likely his site was infected without his knowledge.

I will censor the domain from being used here again.
