Default Antivirus Firm Says Detects Google Text Ad Trojan

Romanian antivirus company BitDefender says ads placed by Google are being hijacked by trojan software that replaces the intended text with ads from a different provider.
“We have cancelled customer accounts that display ads redirecting users to malicious sites or that advertise a product violating our software principles.” “We actively work to detect and remove sites that serve malware in both our ad network and in our search results. We have manual and automated processes in place to detect and enforce these policies.”
