Yes, I have a popup-blocker too, but clicking on ics opened a separate
session containing an add for a phone sms contest. Tried it again, and that
one is gone, but the page still attemps to start a popup. Didn't know that
is was google adds though.

Subject: Re: [twsocket] Website hacked?
I just visited www.overbyte.be
At this point my Firefox Popup-Blocker stopped a popup.
I see no pop-ups on the front page, there never have been pop-ups.
Now when clicking on the ICS link on the left bar (under Products)
I get a new window of some commercial site (e.g. a US Green Card
lottery).
I simply see a new ICS web page, no new window, no pop-up, no adverts.
I'm using the latest Firefox. However Adblock Plus has blocked:
http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js
from the ICS pages, so if something is infected, it's Google.
It's unfortunately that the ICS web pages are invested with horrible
adverts, although I never see them due to Adblock.
I also have:
127.0.0.1 pagead2.googlesyndication.com #[Google AdWords]
in my HOSTS file, which comes from http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/ and
which blocks thousands of other ads and porn sites.
