After entering HDDGURU Forums and posting I am at some point getting a request to run script from 'chitika.net'. This URL is a known malware distribution website.

Not sure where to bring this up but thought I would mention it here for lack of a known better direction to take it in.

For more specific information about 'chitika.net' and there tracked violations please see http://hosts-file.net/?s=chitika.com

Just wanted the 'Web' guys here to know about this.

Hello,

Chitika is an advertising network; they did have an incident in 2009 when one of their advertiser distributed malware, however, they were clean since then.
