AdCloaking: Ad redirections to other sites

Just a short warning – currently there seem to be a new AdCloaking campaign active. Bad Ads are forcing redirections to obscure web sites, offering PUPs (potentially unwanted programs). These redirected ads overlay the websites and try to tempt the visitor to download useless software. Today I received 3 mail from distinct users, reporting AdCloaking for serveral sites (also my site). Just in case your see such an Ad, don't download something, just ignore the Ad. I've informed my Google partner about the new AdCloaking campaign. Let's hope it will be stopped soon.
