In case anyone is interested, as Claude recommended, It was relatively easy
to check for the foreign script injection by myturfads.com. There is a
test page with the code located at http://www.uxb.net/adtest/ that will look
to
Just throwing ideas out there. :)
All my pontificating aside for this particular purpose I am just trying to
detect if the string adx.myturfads.com exists anywhere on the DOM.
For my sister, I've already stopped it from loading by editing the hosts
file on the PC to disallow that domain.
Second, if you use TLS (SSL) exclusively, you should be able to prevent
this.
I tested for this and yes it does prevent it. However that is not actually
the point. The point is much bigger than the pennies they sole from my
