Hi to All. Just playing with Firefox`s new plugin to trace (realtime) third party site connections. Having connected to www.purebasic.fr there was one link connected to a third party site

did a virustotal on the url all clear except bitdefender stating it hosted malware.

Unbeknown to me, did a bit of research and quite quickly found whom the site belonged too.

Anyway this is an interesting and useful tool. A desktop tool following all connection from your OS in the same graphical view would be useful and interesting.
