Indeed, this is quite an annoyance. Buytoolbar.biz/xpl.wmf also works. I sent it to Microsoft a few days ago and they're looking into it. It looks like it's going to be a bad week at MSRC :( I whoised the owners of a couple domains who host the image and got the following information:
[...]
Technical Contact ID: 6464086-SRSPLUS Technical Contact Name: Ezhi Brozkevitsh Technical Contact Organization: Ezhi Brozkevitsh Technical Contact Address1: Al. Armii Ludowej 24 Technical Contact City: Warszawa Technical Contact Postal Code: 00-609 Technical Contact Country: Poland Technical Contact Country Code: PL Technical Contact Phone Number: +21.225798400
[...]
This information does look promising. Iframeurl.biz is also registered to the same individual. Perhaps the Polish authorities could apprehend this culprit (either that, or a Polish reader of full-disclosure could pay him a visit ;). That is, of course, assuming he is stupid enough to use his realname to register a domain for illegal use.
Nope. First, Ezhi seems not to match any Polish name even in terms of phonetic transcription. Brozkevitsh in turn looks like Brożkiewicz in Polish. Second, as far as I know our international phone number always starts with +48... Third, (for those of you who don't know, since 1989 something has changed in Poland and street name as Al. Armii Ludowej seems veeeery unlikely. However, to tell you the truth, it concerns to Warsaw which is a strange city itself (I personally live in Poznan) and nearly everything is plausible there (no offense, Warsaw).
