I have had it happen twice, both times at msnbc or msn. Both times it
appeared from the source code, which I read very well, to be related to ads
that were being served. In neither case did I think to mark the specific
URL for your edification - which would not be of value at any rate since
advertising comes from a completely different server and appears somewhat
randomly. Further, since the code appeared to be advertising related, that
source code would not have shown in the page anyway - you've heard of "rich
format" ads I am sure.
