Same here! On a business board like this I actually like to see the ads and banners so I can see who is spending money, and doing business and what they are promoting. I just finally removed (I hope) the exploit after a half dozen scans & reboots later and wasting the better part fo two days using a few tools including Malware Bytes, AVG anti-virus, TDSS rootkit killer,& Spybot Search & Destroy as well as manually going through my Windows/System 32 folder to remove all the newer .exe & dlls that had a date created yesterday. I am now using FF with No Script & Adblock Plus. I really have no idea why my system is so easily infected when I run an updated Win XP SP3, updated AVG anti-virus, Spybot-SD resident real time protection, Windows Defender and Ad-Aware.
