NetSeer Hacked

An advertising affiliate of many sites across the web known as NetSeer was hacked yesterday.  While initial reports from the company assert that their add network was not compromised, only some of their corporate infrastructure, Google still added it to a list of potential "known malware" sites.  So, if you are browsing with the Chrome browser you may get a warning that legitimate sites are being blocked because "cm.netseer.com.......has been inserted into the page".

More detail can be found on ZDNet who has been one of the affected sites:
