similar to what happened weeks ago with a GCW mirror.
it's the ads that hosts other sites that hosts malware.
this can be considered as collateral damages since FF is not directly involved.

I hate that this happens as I can not pinpoint the source of this crap...

The problem has been found and FileForums should be clean when google re-checks it... (it was a 3rd party advertisers showing crap)
