Anybody else getting a "Microsoft Data Access" notification on this board?

All of a sudden this evening, I'm getting a security notice on Internet Explorer when I'm viewing this site that says "This website wants to run the following add-on: "Microsoft Data Access - Remote Data Services Dat..."


Anybody know if this is just a new "approved" datamining feature, or has somebody hijacked the board?
It's ONLY showing up on Bike Forums.

If the problem is specific to one particular thread, it's usually that someone has stuck something in their post or signature that wants to run an ActiveX control. Poor form, if so.

Funny thing, but I run WinPatrol and it started "woofing" when I was on bikeforums a couple of days ago, possibly after I accidentally moused over one of the ads. Said it was monitoring IE Helpers, but I don't even use Internet Extorter. Ran Adaware and Spybot and found nothing wrong, but the problem persisted. It finally went away after I rebooted. Maybe some of those pesky ads on the right are just too aggressive.

I"m going to move this to User Assitance forum so that one of the Admins can take a look into this.
