| Re: Does anyone know anything about this advert? I've blocked eskimo.com and also emailed our adsense rep with a complaint. Unfortunately I really don't see how this can be avoided in future. I doubt any ad network is smart enough to vet and clean the click stream from any ad, and if they did when the ad was lodged what is to stop the landing page getting modified later? | |

Unfortunately, other sites will be similarly exploited. | |

| Re: Does anyone know anything about this advert? It's definitely a php-based exploit, but not targeting all open source php apps (that I can tell so far), so probably looking for some specific code problem. An analysis of the source and libraries used by the known targets would probably narrow it down.. -- Life is too short to be boring | |

The thing I noticed on the screenshot that was strange - was to the right the "served by google" was missing (usually shows next to our banners on the homepage)-- could be that it was there and just not caught on the screen shot. | |
