Default ad.com virus potential

While on the forum the past few days I keep getting warnings from my virus scanner (AVG) that there is a potential threat from ad.turn.com. The threat is called Exploit Blackhole Exploit Kit. The following is AVG's description -

30-day website safety report for: turn.com

Surf with caution

During the last 7 days potentially active malware was detected on a subdomain. However, no threats were detected on the main website

The site has been acting very weird for the last week or so. Banners that were normally blue go black all of a sudden, the page drops to the bottom at times, for no obvious reason. And only on this site. A week ago I kept getting some sort of msg, when trying to log on here, that there were problems and to try later.
