Thousands Of Web Sites Compromised

[Tywais]

"Security researchers have detected a massive blackhat SEO (search engine optimization) campaign consisting of over 200,000 compromised web sites, all redirecting to fake security software (Inst_58s6.exe), commonly referred to as scareware."

“Cyveillance has discovered a complex attack vector that uses Google search results to distribute malicious software (malware) to unsuspecting Internet users. Using this attack vector, users click on links within Google search results and are routed to sites that attempt to download malware to their computers. The attack method also relies on inattentive webmasters who do not update the software on their sites and often unknowingly provide the material that appears in the search results."

You're behind the curve then. This is a global issue and I suspect nearly all members here use Google and are at risk. Plus there have been member(s) reports of having some odd behavior with Google ads on Thaivisa. Enough reasons I would say.
