...is that article on the DDoS attack on LJ itself on a distinctly dodgy site?

It's certainly on a Russian one - I hadn't actually looked at the rest of the site to see what else it did.

I thought that - it gave me popups and such like, on my (completely unconfigured) firefox.

Aaaah. Firefox doesn't do popups for me (mostly), and I have Adblock Plus installed, so I don't see ads.
