Can't figure out source of "Live Chat with Cams!"

I've run Ad-Aware, and I've updated my HOSTS file to block a bunch of sites. But every once in a while a browser pops up with an ad for German live porn cams. It's driving me nuts!

I can't figure out what is causing the ad to come from, but here's what I know:

Right when the browser opened and before the content loaded, netstat showed the address "xww.de:http"

The ad itself shows a half-nekkie woman and the words "Live Chat mit Cams!" at the top. Under that it has the words "Zugangsoftware wird geladen..." which must mean "or we'll bug you continually".

Along with the ad, a Security Warning pops up asking if I want to install and run "WebConnect_v2.02" signed on 1/28/2002 6:38PM and distributed by "EBS electronic billing systems AG", Publisher authenticity verified by Thawte Server CA.

Can anyone tell me where this is coming from and how I can get rid of it? Please!?!

Hork
