ScanSafe raises alarm: thousands of compromised Web pages

[quote]ScanSafe’s Mary Landesman author of the ominous-sounding post somehow found a malicious iFrame embedded in upwards of 55, 000 Web sites. That didn’t mean much to me until I found out what an iFrame was. According to the Web Design Group an iFrame consists of:

“The IFRAME element defines an inline frame for the inclusion of external objects including other HTML documents. IFRAME provides similar functionality to OBJECT. One advantage of IFRAME is that it can act as a target for other links.

tried that address but said server not found.

My partener had on site to do with parent stuff and quite often it would send the cpu 100% and memory would fill up until total seizure...my guess was something in an advert.
