Hi,

 I have a Windows Server 2003 machine. Lately, I noticed on my mIRC IRC client that something is pasting out ads to the 
current window.

[14:40] <nickname> New threat exploits flaw in Internet Explorer - 
http://www.addict3d.org/index.php?page=viewarticle&type=news&ID=2039 , please support them by clicking the GOOGLE AD 
inside the articles on the right.

[09:46] <nickname> Sasser worm author needs money - http://addict3d.org/index.php?page=viewarticle&type=news&ID=2035 , 
also please support us by clicking the AD inside the article on the right.

http://addict3d.org/index.php?page=viewarticle&type=news&ID=2030 , also please support us by clicking the AD inside the

[14:49] <nickname> please support http://www.addict3d.org (A computer security website) by clicking a google AD, INSIDE 
the articles on the right. Thanks alot. :]

This last ad was the first one I've seen. I've ran SpyBot S&D and Ad-aware with no results. I've search Google for 
addict3d with no results either.

Thanks,

CC.
