Anyone who followed a link or googled the Warriors for Innocence site, do a scan on your computer now. In all likelihood, you now have AdWare. That's why the site was so fucking slow.

No, really, go run AVG or AdAware now. I have every Firefox plugin and freeware active scanner and even I got hit.

GO RUN A SCAN!

Thanks for posting about this. I'm scanning as we speak, um, type. I've already had to reinstall windows once on my laptop due to some fuckupedness, and don't want to have to do it again.

*starts up Avast virus scan*

WTF? That really says a lot about the quality and professionalism of their "campaign", doesn't it. I mean, I run linux so I don't really get Ad- or SpyWare problems myself, but that is disgusting. And isn't that kind of thing illegal??
