Upon visiting the Anandtech Blogs page today, I noticed a "pop-up" which I've never seen before. It's a small border-less window hovering just to the right of the sidebar on the left of the page.

I've never noticed this before, but based on most of the links off the pop-up, it appears to be related to the March 27th entry about the Shanghai processor, which is followed by some Wikipedia content, immediately after the blog entry and before the comments.
The "b" logo on the pop-up appears to be a link to "http://qtl.co.il/aff", followed by the other, more well known web links. Also odd is that the Google search icon actually links to a "search.babylon.com" page. This makes me think this is some sort of spyware/adware engine, but my machine checks out clean.
Is this software hosted by Anandtech or should I be more concerned about my system? I'll be checking another system later to verify, but am unable to at the moment, so I thought I'd ask.
